Thanks, Anna! I definitely want to be in on this, and I'm sending you an
e-mail.

I'd be happy for my poem to be used, Anna.

The other thing I could consider doing either instead of, although I hear a voice for as well as, the chapbook, is approaching Central Avenue Press (who publish The Raintown Review) about the larger manuscript.

Lots of ways to contact me: I lurk regularly on Eratosphere, so reply to this thread. My email is evnsanna_at_comcast.net. Facebook. (Lots of Anna Evanses but not many are friends with a Quincy R. Lehr!!)

Cheers!

Sorry
I got a note from Catherine saying I needed to check this thread (I have been absent of late). So I assume you are wanting Cathy's honorable mentions as well? I would love to see/buy such a chapbook.
I am going to PM you Anna.

Looks like the Anna's chapbook project for this years bake-off moving along. Very cool indeed.

About the idea for a bigger book -- if I am not wrong, this year's was the 10th Eratosphere sonnet bake-off, which would make this an appropriate time to actually consider a big anthology. A collection of the finalists, which would amount to 120 - 130 sonnets, would be a pretty huge undertaking, but it would be easily the best collection of sonnets written in the 21st century so far. I have absolutely no ability to make such a project happen, so I am sort of throwing a skunk in the room and running, but it would be a killer book if there is someone out there capable of making it happen.

Tim Murphy put together a manuscript of finalists a couple of years ago, and I expect he could easily update it.

Hi,

I've just returned from ten days in Italy (Cilento coast, just south of Salerno, very beautiful!) - anyway, I was delighted to note that my entry got an honourable mention, especially considering the quality of the other writers involved.

Thanks to Catherine for bringing Anna's project to my attention. I would be pleased to contribute my sonnet.

Anna - I'll email you the details tomorrow.

best wishes

Alan
