Did you know there’s going to be a panel on superheroes and poetry at AWP – I would love to be there! If any of you go, please give me a full report!
(Of course, this is the first AWP I actually planned not to go to – I was supposed to be giving a reading up in Pasco, Washington instead – which my broken foot/sprained hand combo have thwarted. And they have a superhero poetry panel!! Maybe they’ll have a similar thing next year, one hopes?)
Steve Schroeder is on Verse Daily today! And Jericho Brown was up yesterday – check them both out! I’m going to try to do a quickie review of Steve’s Torched Verse ends here soon…
Quick PS: Does anyone know how to interpret this? I got a SASE back but the envelope hadn’t been sealed, so it’s empty, and the post office never stamped the stamp. Ah, sometimes I love the poetry game and the post office SO MUCH!

Jeannine, if they have a superhero poetry panel next year, you should be on it.
And I’ve gotten the empty envelope back before (and wondered, gee, maybe it had an acceptance, and tried following up with email, yet with no reply).
Best wishes!
Cheryl
I got an empty back once, but could not settle on a good theory.
Hang in there! Injuries hurt less in the spring.

Sorry you couldn’t be part of that AWP panel, J9. You would have rocked! I hope you’re back on your feet soon. As for the empty envelope, zounds! The universe appears to be f-ing with you.
Felicity
Wow, that seems like an argument for marking the envelopes (according to market) somehow…some of the fiction mags that still require paper submissions have address-stamps for the corner, so I haven’t been marking my SASEs. Hmm.
P.S. It’s rather maddening that they’d do such a panel when you aren’t there. 🙁
Michaela
We missed you SO MUCH! But I did get to meet Felicity as a consolation prize.
