Such is the wonderful world of anthologies.
What's even more fun is the communal signing. I was at the World Fantasy convention a few years ago and I'd gotten an early copy of "A Horror a Day: 365 Scary Stories," the horror vignette anthology that pretty much doubled as a directory of all the horror authors at the time, or at least a good have of them. Everyone was signing mine, and I got to sign a couple others that other early birds had located.
I've been the sole poet in an anthology before, but this is my first time with poems in a pure poetry anthology.
Sorry two of yours didn't make the Light cut, Roger, but that means there'll be more fresh material for the unexpurgated edition. And nine poems is a coup for anyone to be proud of.
