poetically challenged

I was asked for a little write up on the background of the Hebrew poetry found in the Old Testament. You can see what I came up with, posted at HubPages.

Star*Line, the official magazine of the Science Fiction Poetry Association, is open to submissions again.  Hurry and send your poems it, as submissions always fill up quickly there, and will close again until July once the 3 issues currently taking subs are filled up.

Here’s some really good advice over at the Writer’s Relief blog that on how to get more of your writing accepted for publication.

The rejection letters can get discouraging, if you allow them to. Seeing some acceptance letters sprinkled in the mix is one of the best ways I know to overcome that problem. Following the advice at the Writer’s Relief blog should help get the acceptance letters going.

It is time for nominations for the SFPA’s Rhysling Awards.

I’ve put up a list of my poems that are eligible for nominations.

Don’t forget that the new listings in the Poet’s & Writer’s classifieds section will be coming out soon. Stop by and have a look over the next few days to see what opportunities are out there for you.

And have a happy new year!

I had a couple of posts scheduled to go up over the past few days. I had put them in just before the holidays, knowing I would be busy during this past week. Somehow, they didn’t get published when they were supposed to.

Anyway, I’ve rescheduled them to come out over the next couple of days, so you should see them here then. If all is back to normal, you should see regular updates here again from today onwards.

Apologies for the interruption.

Have you sent any work over to Strange Horizons for consideration?

They’ve got nice work there, and a very nice pay rate for poems published in the magazine. Do take a careful look at the guidelines, and send your best stuff over their way.

Tales of the Talisman should be opening up to new submissions on Jan 1.

Take a close look at the guidelines and send your subs over.
