Got a poem accepted for publication, unexpectedly. It was one I submitted like... months ago, and I'd completely forgotten the submission until I got the email today.
It included this nice notation of what the poetry editor had to say about it:
"I like this. It's interesting that these sad lonely men made an impression on the narrator; it says as much about a little girl as it does about several old men. Nothing seems forced. And, had the author been less graceful, she could have made this a lot longer, but, thankfully, she is graceful, and the poem has dignity."
Poem is "Those Met Briefly" and it will be published in the 2007 Summer/Fall issue of Plain Spoke. Looking forward to reading this mag!
