I just received an acceptance from Modern Haiku. It is probably my most prestigious acceptance so far, and my smallest contribution -- six words. Anyway, those who participated in the Master Class with Lee Gurga will appreciate this: MH editor Charles Trumbull, who judged our little contest, assured me that the batch I submitted was "more palatable than a turd!" Good news.

Also, with the acceptance came my cash payment -- a crisp one dollar bill. Sweeeeet!

Hooray for getting paid for poetry! And how fitting the amount is, though I grant that more would be nice. Congrats.

David, I have huge respect for anyone who can assemble a haiku that is accepted at Modern Haiku. Hats off.
