A couple months ago I was told by an editor of a highly competitive anthology that he wanted to include two of my poems. I was ecstatic! This particular publication is listed as one of the top 25 most competitive poetry markets in the country, receiving over 10,000 submissions per edition, which features about 75 poets. Ah, but there was a catch: he then informed me that, while he loved the poems, they had to pass muster with his co-editor. I’m still waiting. Don’t know if that’s good or bad. Not sure if I’d rather he’d never mentioned it until the final decision had been made or not, as my hopes are high. . .
