Maybe I need to send some more poems out. Things are starting to slow down.

I have my own prize you send submissions to: The Donald Illich Prize in Kick Ass Poetry. Just send a $100 check to me, endorsed to "Donald Illich," and if I select your work I'll staple it and hand out copies in the D.C. Metro.
You make me laugh.
So Cortland Review really does take a year to respond. Just like they say in their guidelines.
Hi, Glenn.
I've been following your saga over at lovesettlement (and at Dare I Read). Tell Kent I was sorry to hear your cherries had been absconded with. Any chance it was birds? Might make the loss more palatable imagining those birds trying to stow their ladders!
And yeah, Cortland Review took a year for this last submission. I suspect it's their way of slowing things down to a manageable pace. They also said in the rejection note: "please, don't send us anything else for six months."
How long did they take when they published your poem?
What else is new?
I don't think they took a year when they said yes to me waaaay back in the day. But ... I don't really remember.
I've finally been typing poems from recent notebooks. My poems are so strange to me. I seem to anticipate my own objections -- how do I do that?
Birds? Birds (or squirrels?) seem to take a bite and leave a hunk that either hangs on the tree or falls to the ground. You know humans have been there when a day or two after you last looked all the little red globes have neatly disappeared.
Good that you're typing them up.
When will you send out?
