"I have a poem 'Going Out' in the October Issue of 'First Things', and four poems, 'Morlocks', 'Talking to Dead People', 'Little Chris in the Garden' and 'The Woes of Ganymede', in 'Quadrant', which last is the rudest thing I have ever published..."
John, if I were you, I'd move "in Quadrant" up a bit, to the point immediately after "poems" and before the following comma. As it stands, you do the journal a rather surprising disservice.

Reason: quoted John, merely corroborative detail, intended to add artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing post.
