long swim

I've had some good news which is dancing girl press accepted my chapbook manuscript "Excuse me while I wring this long swim out of my hair" for publication. July. I'm very glad.

The funny thing was I got the acceptance notice on Friday, the same day I won a bottle of Rioja in the office tombola. And there is a poem called "Rioja" in the chapbook! There is also a poem about the dictionary, money and riding backwards on the train. And Weimar and bees and reindeer. Poems galore.

You continue to be my hero. Conga rats to you, lady.

I remember that backward train poem. Or one of them, anyway.

Sarah, That's great!! Can't wait. I remember a lot of these. Is it the reindeer in the snowglobe poem?

Your chap will be the gift that everyone gets from me this year.
