News 2023
- In with the new: "How to Welcome the New Year" was published in MacQueen's Quinterly on January 1, 2023.
- "In Memoriam" is in the winter 2023 issue of Months to Years.
- Panoply: a literary zine, issue 23, includes "Bison."
- eno magazine, from the Nicholas School of the Environment at Duke University, is including "The Bay View" in its 11th edition.
- "'An abundance of caution,' they say" was recognized with a first honorable mention in the Maine Poets' Society's members-only contest this spring.
- Pleased that my poem "Get Out" was published in Silkworm, vol.16, released November 2023 by the Florence Poets Society. It's doubly fun because I lived in Florence, Massachusetts, for about 30 years!
- Thanks to an alert from the Maine Poets Society, I submitted two poems to The Kleksograph, an online "international review of arts and the subconscious." The editor has included "Making Sense" and "'View from the Park' in Ink" in the September issue.
- A poem inspired by coastal Maine is up at Eastern Iowa Review: "Between-world."
- Wow, I love the colorful cover (not sure of the maker) of this journal! Plus, the editors were a pleasure to work with. Get this: they pride themselves on their timely response to submissions—hooray!—“an important goal,” they say, “as all of the editors of this magazine are working poets and have felt the scourge of long holds of our poems by reputable magazines—sometimes a year or more.” Thanks, Nine Mile Books & Literary Magazine, for that and for including two of my poems in this issue.
