Default i'm writing?

It's true, I’ve been busy over the years doing too much editing and not enough of my own writing, I’ve been trying to change that in recent months. Already, too many rejections! . . . but there's a poem in the latest Euphony, just released. And, another's just been taken by American Arts Quarterly.

Cheers,
...Alex

Cool! The AAQ is particularly impressive.

When you get acceptances, especially to joints like AAQ, there's no such thing as "too many rejections." Congrats Alex!

Editing in: just looked at the link for Euphony. A lovely poem in a lovely journal. Double congrats!

Those are both excellent places to be. Congrats, Alex, not only on the acceptances, but on struggling through to find the time to write!

Bravo Alex! I've had a look at Euphony and I agree with David. A fine poem - and I remember you reading it at West Chester. And AAQ is a great venue too.
