Sandra said...: You're in honorable company...I think all of those places have rejected me at one time or another. I'm in the limbo of not being to send out until I...um...write some more damn poems to send out. Carry on!; 8/07/2006 3:43 PM

Can't get accepted if you don't get rejected, no? yes?

And uh, well, I don't mean to get pushy, but just write some more damn poems!

Ask Don for some prompts; he's got too dang many ideas anyway. I'm worried about him.

Well, I'm not really worried about him, but I might get worried if he keeps writing at this pace: white hot; might combust.; 8/07/2006 4:39 PM

Odd, too, this month, ACM rejected for the third time the same set of poems.

I had some correspondence with them. Sent them an SASE with each letter I sent them, got each SASE back approximately four months later with a rejection slip in it.

Makes me laugh.; 8/07/2006 4:45 PM
