Margaret, the 18 Rhina will comment on are just a small sampling of the volume of tremendous work we've seen this year on Erato. Remember, each poet who submitted sent only one poem, the one he considered his best out of all those he workshopped in 2004, and then Tim narrowed the field further and sent Rhina only a few dozen of those. Rhina selected 18 to comment on, a time-consuming and extremely generous effort on her part! But what is being presented here is just a fraction of the good work we've produced. I think we could fill our own anthology with the fine poems that are workshopped on Erato in any given year.
