Well, I have some news today that maybe belongs in "Accomplished Members," but the poem in question might have already had a go there a few years ago when it was first published in the
National Geographic Book of Nature Poetry (a children's anthology), so I'll just mention it here. The news is that Houghton Mifflin Harcourt wants to use it in the
Houghton Mifflin Reading Program materials (including several different formats that collectively will end up yielding five million copies). Educational publishing is where the money is, as they proved by offering vastly more money than I got for the original publication (and far more than I've ever received for a single poem).
