Title: Tomorrow I send out my first poems for publication.
Post by: Quemaqua on Thursday, April 26, 2007, 09:33:24 PM

Wish me luck.  I'll be sending three poems to the Black Book Press, five to UNC Charlotte's Sanskrit, and I'm doubling up 3 for simultaneous submissions to The Blind Man's Rainbow (http://www.theblindpress.com/bmr/bmr.html) and In the Grove (http://inthegrove.net/).  Keep your fingers crossed!

Awesome, good luck with that.  Which three poems are you sending?

The big 3 for BMR and Grove are "because I still don't get e. e. cummings", "drop", and "I can't paint".  At least I think.  They're all on DA for now, but they'll be getting shelved before the night is out.

Good luck, I hope something comes of it. It's a hard industry to get started in, but you've got the skills, so hopefully someone notices. :)

Well, I guess today won't be the day.  The fucking post office by my work was closed because they're computer system went down.  Dipshits.  It takes a computer to sell me some damned stamps?  So... tomorrow!

Now I have to cross my fingers all over again. If I get a cramp I'm suing the post office.

This has been the week from hell, let me tell you.  This is pretty much just a minor little inconvenience that should be no big deal, but everything keeps fucking happening.  It's gotten to the point of ridiculousness.  I'm about to go smash something right now.
