Hi Annie. Just put A Formal Feeling Comes and Multiformalisms on my wishlist. I'm very excited about them.
Thank you for the beautiful poem in Numinoushttp://numinousmagazine.wordpress.com
Have to check out one of your books sometime.
Thanks for the add, Annie. Thanks for the listing. I'll keep an eye out for your poetry volumes.
Good reading to you,
Ed Lynskey
