Sewanee Sonnets Soon
Today's mail brought my pay (!) for the two sonnets of mine that will be appearing in the next issue of The Sewanee Review ("America's oldest literary quarterly" and a consistently rewarding read!).
The poems are funny-ish (I hope) takes on illustrious primates: one about a caged orangutan and one about my dad. Both gained much from workshopping here, so my thanks, once again, to this community.
Best wishes,
--Simon

Congratulations, Simon! It is always a treat to be paid for poems. Sadly, I have noticed that the number of female poets in that journal is very low indeed.

Marvelous, Simon. Congratulations. You can sing, with a Myron Cohen-like accent, "Way down upon the Sewanee Review . . ."
