After the storm will come a sleep like oceans deep
So I don't actually think I want to talk about the ways in which yesterday worsened after my last post, but I am going to point out that once the storm proper started and the internet went down for twelve hours, when it came back up I found:
My poem "Anthemoessa on the Main Line" has been accepted by Moral Relativism Magazine. It's another one sparked by a line from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ashlyme's bio, in this case "He haunts second-hand bookshops and canals, and has yet to meet a rusalka." The magazine is still reading for its fifth issue; the theme is "Loyalty and Lies." I was unable to read their guidelines without thinking immediately of Tacroy: "He lied for me for a whole day . . . And he was believed."
The accompanist from Sunday's concert came through with the offer of a paying gig. It will be in December and I will post further details as I know them. In the meantime, I am totally taking suggestions on Yiddish repertoire.
I was asked whether I've ever consulted as a fiction editor for a fee. To which the answer is pretty much: no, I just beta-read things my friends send me; but I am now wondering if that is something I could do.
B. sent me half a dozen pictures from Antalya and Termessos, including the half-statue of Herakles—now whole—that was just returned from the MFA last year.
So maybe I need more storms.

Thank you! I just kept reading them out to
And yes, I think you should consult. I've always found the things you have to say really useful; to get paid for that would be amazing.
And that is useful for me to know: I don't always feel that I'm being helpful. I'll let you know what happens.
(Because, yes, it would be amazing. I just don't want to be cheating anyone.)
Re Yiddish songs, "Di Sapozkelekh" comes to mind, and "Shnirele, Perele".
I had been wondering about those two: I will definitely bounce them off my voice teacher. I was also thinking "Oy Dortn, Dortn" and maybe something by Hirsh Glik that isn't "Zog nit keyn mol" (which everyone knows), like "Dos Zangl."

I approve the fuck out of that.
