ROMANCING THE POEM AND A LOVEY-LOVE LETTER

My poem, "Romancing the Poem," was just accepted at Chronogram Magazine for their May 2010 issue, page 63.

Chronogram editor Phillip Levine wrote me my love letter and told me my poem is a "good, charming piece."

Yes, I'm quite happy. This makes me 5 for 5 in terms of my goal - one for every month of this year so far.

Smooches to Phil Levine!

Wow, Anjie, how sweet it was to turn to pages 60/61 in Chronogram and there was "Romancing the Poem". What an exhausting love affair paper and pencil experienced. Extremely well written and good and charming as the editor commented. 4 for 4 - that's impressive. Go, girl, go!
Lovingly,
JJJ
The way you write I can't even remotely imagine your novel to not be a huge success. Keep on keeping on.

OOPS! May does happen to be the 5th month. Hmmmh? How'd that happen? My genius mind had a tad of a glitch. How's congrats on 5 for 5?
