Default PN (belated) Review

Apologies to those who've heard this news in other places; I just think it's so funny I have to tell it again.

Sometimes it's a good thing to send an indignant query when a magazine that forbids simultaneous subs and promises responses in 45 days has not replied in seven months. It appears I'm going to have three poems in PN Review--only they forgot to tell me.

I only learned the poems had been accepted when I wrote a snippy note asking that, if the poems didn't appeal, they be rejected so I could try another place in good conscience. Fortunately, they didn't do that.

I have it on the word of other friends that PN Review sometimes responds within a week, so don't let my unusual experience discourage you from sending them work. (I sent them one sonnet, one blank verse poem with all feminine endings, and one unrhymed piece in mixed accentual pent and trimeter.)

Huge congrats, Maryann!! Impressive. They must have figured with poetry like that, you were too intuitive and creative to need such banal things as notices and such...
