Still Available

I was browsing the magazines at Books-A-Million the other day with the poet Steven Brown, and I came across the new issue of Doorways Magazine. I was delighted to say that I had appeared in one of the magazine's earlier issues, #3. It got me to thinking that I really only post new publications around here, but many of my poems stay online, or the journals they are published in do not sell out, and perhaps I missing out on a little long term promotion. It is my new goal to keep reminding folks, especially new readers that happen by, that some of these releases are still available and worth reading. So I'll start, naturally, with Doorways...

The poetry in Doorways is edited by the Rhysling Nominated poet Stephen M. Wilson. This issue also has poetry by Bruce Boston and Marge Simon. My collaboration with Ana Spann, "The Flaming Carousel: A Recant" is in this issue. Buy it here http://www.doorwayspublications.com/backissues.htm .



The 2008 Rhysling Anthology includes my nominated poem, "28 Blackbirds at the End of the World." Buy it from Amazon.com

Updates and other effluvia...

Yup. That's my new word of the day...

So I have finished my first full year of graduate school, where I have been working on my Masters of Fine Arts in poetry. It has been one of the most challenging and rewarding years of my life. Two more to go. Since I will have most of the summer off I have lined up a few things for myself to do beyond the obligatory hours I will spend on the Xbox 360.

I seriously hope to get some translating done, as I have been picking through a book of poetry by Javier Lentini. That is my top priority. I also hope to finish a chapbook that I have been working on. I plan to get back to my editing duties at three different presses, as I have had to neglect several releases due to my new schedule. Sorry bout that...

I also hope to add more friends to my Facebook and Twitter sites, which have become a good way to disseminate information about my writing to people who get it whether they want it or not. Ha ha. Follow me http://twitter.com/JBruceFuller .

Yellow Flag Broadsides Sold Out

My two broadsides released this week from Yellow Flag Press have officially sold out. Sorry if you missed them, but they were very limited editions. Hopefully there will be more such projects in the future.
