But the ten-times-fingering weed to hold you
1. My poem "Lamellae (Hipponion and Cambridge)" has been accepted by Ideomancer. I found this out just after seeing The Incredibles (2004) for the sixth time. The two are otherwise wholly unrelated.
2. My poem "Titania's Dream" is now online at Lone Star Stories. Just between![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
seajules' "Foxhunt," papersky's "Remember the Allosaur," and Hal Duncan's "The Behold of the Eye," it's an extraordinary (and extraordinarily funny) issue. And then there's more.
3. For those who have had the foresight to subscribe, the cornucopia that is Sirenia Digest #32 should be in your inboxes by now—greygirlbeast's transfigurative "Derma Sutra (1891)," readingthedark's interview with Richard A. Kirk, and the illustrated "The Woman Who Was Wife to the Husband of the Sea." You want steampunk? Sign here. It's not at all random, but it is hot. Read a book. Don't be a void.
So far, I think August is earning its keep.

Is a great issue of Lone Star Stories!

I have to go read "Titania's Dream." One of the things (along with the gorgeous images and rhythms) that I want to look at again is what felt like a play of soft words and images against harder, which makes me think a bit of dreams and desire against reality or loss (things like "spring of anemones" against "shuttle tightening" and "flax on flax"; "to douse his head of dreams" alongside "swagger of heroes"; "dark as dusk in June" beside "Cow parsley, the rusting of clipped coin"; "lightly as the small rain" and "wind through the skene" against "rag-and-bone." You play words so well!

It really is. I'm glad to be part of it.

I am honored to be an incantation!

Thank you!
When are you going to send them something of yours?

They are an excellent magazine; they are somehow not as widely known as they should be. I've had two poems published there before, "Green and Dying" and "If Fallen Angels Dream of Flight," and I keep hoping I'll come up with a story that feels right for them.
Speaking of which: Beneath Ceaseless Skies needs you.

Thank you!
And "Titania's Dream" is gorgeous, rich and dazzling and full of changing light, growing shadows.
Same to you and "Foxhunt." I love where it ends.
