I've been constantly busy and a bit out of the loop here (though I suppose I was never really in it, or only really in it in some of the non-workshop forums), but I have three poems in the current Poetry and I feel inclined to shout from the various rooftops about it: http://www.poetryfoundation.org/poetrymagazine/toc/2444. I hope you don't mind.

Rory

Wow! Definitely worth shouting from the rooftops -- congrats!

Nausheen

Congratulations, Rory. It is not an easy journal for anyone with formal tendencies to appear in.

Susan

Congratulations, Rory. I subscribe to Poetry and have read your poems. Very nice work. Good for you!

Richard

That's terrific!

Fantastic!
Congratulations!

Great news!

Worth shouting from all available rooftops. Congratulations, and I especially like "Over the Heath" for the way it disguises heptameter lines as stanzas.

I'm always impressed when UK people get into that mag, and having 3 poems there is big news indeed.

In the same issue Todd Swift's essay/review provides what seems to me to be a fair description of how things are over here, though I still can't see why Helen Mort should attract more attention than, say, Rory.

Good show, Rory! What a tough nut to crack, and you did it beautifully.
