Great Britain's Anvil Press is publishing The Sea, The Sea! an anthology of seagoing poems to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Trafalgar. The editor heard me read Bitter End, my ballad that "converses" with Patrick Spens, at the Royal Festival Hall; and miraculously, he remembered it. As a Patrick O'Brian certifiable nut case fan, I'm tickled to honor Lord Nelson.
Texas Poetry Journal just published a long interview and the first chapter of the new prosimetrum, Requited, my reflections on the Boy Scouts. The autumn issue will feature an excellent interview with Rhina by Roy Scheele.
