Yes, good article, thank for sharing.
They do, but I think what they publish online is different than the print edition. Ill find and post the URL.
MSJ has accepted 2 poems for their next issue, which will be released Monday November 23. This is a new journal, only the second issue, put out by the University of Delaware.
Ruth, congratulations.
Also, check out the thread on this forum for places to submit. I've found several great journals through here.
Thanks. I'm eager to see the finished product. I have no idea what the cover looks like.
2 of my poems have been accepted for an HIV/AIDS anthology called Space Between Us. The book is scheduled to be released on December 1, World AIDS Day.
Congrats Ruth!
Congrats, Marian. I love Pirene's Fountain-they do a beautiful job
David, this sounds great. I'm only 40 minutes from Philly but have a regional site visit at work next week.

I also love this poem!
Thanks for posting this info. I am always looking for new places to submit.
This is terrific!!
How wonderful-thanks to both of you for taking the time to post this. What a terrific poem.

I also pay attention to reading periods, submission guidelines, and have the greatest respect for editors. However, I think waiting years without even acknowledgement of receipt is unprofessional.
Ruth, this is exciting. Tar River is an excellent journal. Congrats!

I waited 2 years and received a thanks but no cigar reply. I have been in a few situations similar to the onees described where after what feels like forever there has been no reply, and I've withdrawn my submission. I actually had that happen with a submission that was accepted somewhere else about 1 year after I submitted it to the first journal. Even though I was confident they did not want the poem, I still sent tham a formal withdrawal.
Matt, thanks for posting, I like your work. I especially enjoy Eudora-my granddaughter just turned 4 and I can put her precisely in that situation.
Jan- I am a Bellevue reject, although I've not given up. I also consider Ploughshares big time. Calyx would sure be nice, as would Rattle. Big time is kind of like age-the age at which I think of someone as "old" increases as my own age does!
David, this is exciting. What a neat venue!
