After getting better briefly, my tonsillitis has returned – even worse! Argh! If this keeps up I don’t know if I can go to NYC. If I can’t talk? Yikes!
And, the Redmond Post Office is still losing my mail sent to my PO Box and can’t explain to me why. Just returning it to sender “undeliverable.” This means no rejections or acceptances, or book contest notifications. I just sent out about ten e-mail notes to editors who had accepted poems that I probably haven’t received any contributor copies sent in the last three months, either. Three months! And I paid a hundred dollars to have this PO Box during my move, so I’d be sure to get my mail. Urgh! I don’t know what to do about journals I haven’t heard from. Would you recommend trying to contact them, even if it’s only been three months, because of the liklihood that the SASE they sent me was tossed?
