Today, I received word that one of my poems, "Laura Brown Reads To the Lighthouse," has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize by Tiger's Eye. One of my other poems has also been nominated, by the ezine, flashquake.

I was so pleased when Tiger's Eye accepted the poem; I didn't expect this, however. The poem will appear in the next issue, to be published this spring. It is my second poem based on The Hours; the first one appeared in the 2006 issue of MOBIUS.

Congratulations, Diane. What a great way to be surprised!

Thanks much, Maryann. I spoke in error--the Tiger's Eye issue is out; I received mine yesterday (there is also an error in the poem which I didn't catch in the proof; I think I should not look at my own proofs anymore).
