[Tim Murphy]

Frost said "We have to lodge some things where they will stick," and for him that meant anthologies. I'm in the new First Things and Able Muse Anthologies and the forthcoming sonnet anthology edited by Mary Meriam. Today I signed my book contracts with Lewis and Clark/Fort Mandan Foundation. They will produce the double volume Mortal Stakes/Faint Thunder in January, then Hunter's Log in October 2011.

I am delighted to have just received acceptances of Interment from Anna and Quincy at the Raintown and of 37th Pentecost, Footsore and Father's Day from Bill Thompson at the Alabama Literary Review.

My most recent publications have been in Quadrant, Sewanee Theological Review, Anglican Theological Review, and First Things. So see folks? Despite all the doubts, I really did become a devotional poet!
