The water looks good on you

Today's mail has brought my contributor's copy of Not One of Us #60, containing my poems "The River Delivers Its Commission" and "Nostalgia/Νέκυια." The former was written for Yoon Ha Lee and deals with floods and words; the latter is a dispossessed Odyssey poem. The issue's theme is remnants, with especially strong work from Matthew Lyons, Gwynne Garfinkle, Aurea Kochanowski, Mat Joiner, S. Brackett Robertson, and Steve Toase. Especially because so many of my regular poetry markets have closed or otherwise ceased to exist, it makes me happy that this magazine where I was first published is still alive.

My parents are taking me on a pre-birthday day trip. (My birthday is Tuesday.) I shall report back when I return.
