I was trying to find a way of stopping the clock

My poem "Fjöturlundr (Saturnian)" has been accepted by [livejournal.com profile] ericmarin for the April issue of Lone Star Stories. It is mostly about the days of the week; also, Ragnarök. Probably I cannot blame [livejournal.com profile] fleurdelis28 for all of that.

Speaking of time, I suspect I should have mentioned before today that I will be attending this year's ICFA; I will be in Orlando from the 17th to the 22nd, and I have no idea what my online presence will be like. Last year indicates nonexistent, but maybe I will at least get some writing done. Anyone else going to be there? That I don't already know about?

I really hope someone has set the suitably anonymous Mr. Anderson's "Mummering at Christmas" to music, because I discovered it while looking for Simani's "Any Mummers Allowed In?" and it's awesome.

I photographed swans today.

Can you stop by here on the way back up for my birthday?

Congratulations!

That's an awesome poem, and I'm glad it's appreciated properly.

I'd have to think so. Looking at it, I'm almost given to think it was meant as a song in the first place. With a bit of reflection, I suspect I could probably find an air to put it to, myself.

Congratulations on the acceptance!

I am so glad that Eric Marin, bless his speedy slush-reading ways, likes that poem as much as I do.

Congratulations on the acceptance! I'm looking forward to reading the poem (with my Eight Days of Luke hat on, but also of course my [livejournal.com profile] sovay-fan fedora).

Last year, on the other hand, you came back with some excellent pictures, so I wouldn't stress abt. getting online.
