I published a Formal poem for the first time. A sestina called "Multnomah Falls" that appeared here a while ago. An editor of a tiny, local and irregular literary journal requested it after hearing me read it at a coffeehouse open-mic.
The publication is called "Freudian Shrimp", and could be ordered through Powell's Books on-line...maybe they'll become collectables?
I've had poems published before-- perhaps in 8 or 10 differant places. But all free-verse, and all on the internet. The most distinguished venues were, I suppose, Taverner's Koans and Absinthe Literary Review.
I'm not very energetic about this sort of thing.
(I didn't give Josh a bio, so he wrote his own. He described me as a "soft-spoken neo-formalist" because they allways have to turn up the mike for me.)
