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 [livejournal.com profile] 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.

You should try some Hodgson, yes!

Well done! This is turning out to be your season.

Have you read Couthart's graphic version of The Call? Awesome. Also, what Hodgson have you read?

Congratulations on the acceptances!

I can see why you do. I wish I had an answer for you.

Apparently I should read more William Hope Hodgson.

Looks as if a fair amount of his work is available on Gutenberg and the like, so it appears you're in luck if you should wish to do so.

It's not like anyone had a Leica in the night-lost middle of the Pacific, forsaken by all but the wrong gods.

Poem, story, please thank you.
That's a gorgeous illustration. Although the artist's other work seems to indicate a slight obsession with tentacles.

and excellent news of the tri-Taaffic triptych-triumvirate triumph!
