They also say that I bring back the past

My poems "Settling Accounts" and "Trying for It," otherwise known as the poem I wrote for asakiyume on the spring full moon of Nisan and the poem I wrote for Thomas Andrews on the centenary of the Titanic, have been accepted by The Revelator, where my Lovecraft poem "Being Providence" has already found a home. I hadn't intended for them to be published as a sort of gerund triptych, but I'm really not going to complain now that it's happening. The editors suggest a new poetic form: the tri-Taaffe. I should let them collage all my work.

Discovered last night: John Coulthart's "S. Latitude 47° 9', W. Longitude 126° 43'." I really want a print. I wonder if I can get it without buying the calendar. Apparently I should read more William Hope Hodgson.

9781840225297 is an ISBN of a currently-available edition of The Casebook of Carnacki the Ghost Finder, which has all nine of Hodgson's Carnacki stories, and appears to be an inexpensive paperback -- Amazon has it for $7 and there are used copies (although of course with the shipping they're only going down to $4.99 right now :P ). It's also findable through Indiebound.com, of course -- I just used Amazon to actually look at the table of contents.

Also, as part of the Stone Telling team, I protest this notion of letting another venue do anything at all with all of your poems! :P

That is very useful to know. And it doesn't look like a bad edition, either. Thank you!

(Wait, how did I miss he was killed at Ypres in World War I? I wonder if I was mentally confusing him with David Lindsay, who died in the next war. This is like finding out this afternoon that Thomas Tryon—whom I associate with B-movies like I Married a Monster from Outer Space (1958)—is in fact best-known as a novelist. Thank you, brain. Someday you will store information helpfully and everyone will be surprised.)

Heh. I didn't give them exclusive publication, just first refusal rights on mash-ups!
