Blog postSelf-Portrait, Vincent van Gogh, 1889. Musée d’Orsay. Wikimedia Commons. PD. I am pleased and thankful that Editors Shi Yang Su and Jia Ning Ran have accepted two poems, “Where the Machine Can’t Go” and “Mother and Child,” for the second issue of their new poetry journal, Poetic Sun. From the little I have read in Issue 1, the editors favor dramatic language and emotional story-telling. The poems they accepted share that aesthetic.
“Where the Machine Can’t Go” is a piece of im -
Blog postPhoto credit: Bruce Bisping, Old Style Cash Register and Canned Goods in a Butcher Shop in New Ulm, Minnesota. October, 1974. Wikimedia Commons. PD. I am pleased that the editors of the new magazine, Angel Rust, have accepted my can poem, “BEST,” for their first issue. I have written about my can poems so many times that they have their own category on the blog, so you can just hit that for more information. Basically, I select text from top to bottom, front to back, of a can.

Blog postMy living room, taken by me, 7 June 2021. After a worrisome dry spell, Right Hand Pointing announced on Facebook that they didn’t have enough acceptances for their next issue and requested submissions. Since they so recently accepted “Luminous,” I thought I should send something, and I happened to have a good poem called “While You’re Away,” written when my husband had to take two trips in a row
I walked into the living room/dining room/music studio (not visible in the picture, but t -
Blog postGovernment buildings reflected in a government building in Berlin, along the Spree. Taken by me, 2018. I am happy to see that my poem, “Government Buildings in Berlin, 2018,” is out again in The Bookends Review. Many thanks to the editors, especially Editor-in-Chief Jordan Blum, who graciously accepted it as a reprint. I previously wrote about the poem here, and I am happy that Bookends included an explanatory note that you can read under the poem. It was first published in After the Pause.

Blog postWhat Lies on the Other Side and the latest edition of Schlock! Taken by me. I have received some publications, most of which contain work by me. First, we have What Lies on the Other Side, a compendium of issues of cc&d Magazine, a Scars publication. This contains my flash, ‘Difficulties on Theory,’ about the closeted Darwinist. Second, with the discomfiting cover, is the current issue of Schlock!. The middle story mentioned on the bottom of the cover, Eye of the Beholder, is my horror f

Blog postPhoto credit: History of Horror, Veintitres. 19 July, 2014. Wikimedia Commons. CC BY-SA 4.0. N.B.: This file has been removed from Wikimedia Commons. Trigger warnings: The cover of the latest edition of Schlock! is weirdly disgusting and disturbing. I mean that in a good way, but sensitive souls may not enjoy it. Also, my story contains graphic violence and gore and is not for people sensitive to mentions of eating and compulsive exercise disorders.

Blog postI have not been in touch with Xiao-Fu for decades, but I hope he will not mind being identified as the inspiration behind the little poem I discussed here, which was published today in Right Hand Pointing and can be read there. Many thanks to Editor Dale Wisely and team for that. Though Xiao-Fu is much older now (I seem to be as well), I think you can see and hear why I thought he was “a little luminous.” I remember him as a very kind person who lived to do justice to great music and to h

Blog postWe found this film to be laudable in its intentions but disappointing in its execution. Portraying Latasha is a delicate balancing act, as anything negative about her or her friends, family, and neighborhood is likely to be seized on by racists and used to justify her murder. But by praising her largely in vague, idealizing … Continue reading Love Song for LaTasha Review, and Twitter Mention
