Come with the sun and getting restless when it's gone

1. The snowpocalypse turned into freezing rain; I had to shovel chunks of ice off the front steps. I believe it may still be raining. Once again, betrayed by porn.

2. Yesterday's mail, slogging bravely through the falling snow clumps, brought my contributor's copy of the latest annual not-Not One of Us publication, Love Is a Hurtin' Thing. It opens with Patricia Russo's "People Love What They Love" and closes with my poem "Sefer Yetzirah," which I am very glad to have in print; it is a love letter with golems. I will post links as soon as they're available.

3. My poems "Anakatabasis" (Hidden) and "In the Earth in Those Days" (Not One of Us #44) have been nominated for the Rhysling Award.

4. I have to catch a plane. My godchild turns one on Saturday.

Congratulations, on all counts!

I still have the last issue of NOU in my purse. It's coming along with me tomorrow when I'll be places I have to wait--meaning time to read!

Thank you!

I particularly recommend to you "The Seal Wife," written by strange_selkie. It should be the lead story, if you have the issue I think you do.

I didn't have as much reading time as I'd hoped, but I did get to read "The Seal Wife," and phew, it is beautiful--so gorgeously tangible, thought and emotion manifested every texture and color.
