When the editor of ‘The Monsters Next Door’ invited me to submit something to her upcoming poetry anthology I was blown away. I’ve never been personally invited to submit to an anthology before! You can bet your butt I was going to take advantage of the offer 🙂
It was tough though. I put all sorts of pressure on myself to come up with some new poems that would fit her theme (dark, scary and not haiku LoL). In the end I submitted four poems, one of which was a repeat; The Sepultress, Zonnet (a zombie sonnet), Lycantrick (which I co-wrote with Jo) and a set of three werewolf haiku.
She accepted them all. Yay! I think the book is due to be released in May, so hopefully everyone else will like them too once that happens LoL
That’s pretty exciting! Congratulations 🙂 I found your blog through Puss Reboots – and I look forward to reading more from you!
Thank you Ruthie 🙂 I hope you hang around and like what you see…erm…read 🙂
Your welcome! Thanks for stopping by my blog – we did have a lot of fun on the trip!
Congratulations.
If you’d like to be invited again, I’m coediting the anthology Trafficking in Magic/Magicking in Traffic for Drollerie Press with my colleague Sarah Avery. The full call for submissions is at http://drolleriepress.com/from-the-editors/call-for-submissions/
