Congratulations, David! I'm proud of you, and for the fact that I still hearken back to your help a few years ago in helping to get my villanelle "At Wounded Knee" published. Actually, let's forget the word 'helped': your efforts got my poem published at Candelabrum. Left to myself, the poem would have gone nowhere. I'm also indebted to Tim Murphy for drawing extra attention to my vil at the time.
On another note: I'm finally on medication and seeing a doctor, after a recent 5 day stint in the Mohave Mental Health facility up in Kingman, Arizona. I was voluntarily admitted for substance abuse, and suicidal ideation. Hopefully soon I can do some of my own self-promotion.
Until then, you set a fine example for we who take poetry seriously, and once again, congrats!
Bill
