I have four poems in the new issue of Star*Line, published today on New Year’s Day, which makes a good start to my writing year 🙂

My poem “Directions to the Underworld” has been accepted for the forthcoming travel issue of Eye to the Telescope, edited by Alicia Cole. It’s my 13th poem to sell to Eye to the Telescope.

I’ve belatedly realized that my short-short story “Red” is in the recently published Twilight Worlds: The Best of NewMyths Anthology Volume II. By my count, this is my one hundredth short story to be published.

I revised the poem that had received a rewrite request from Star*Line, emailed it back, and they accepted it one day later. So that was nice 🙂

A nice start to Christmas: I had a poem accepted by Star*Line, as well as a rewrite request on a second poem 🙂 Wishing one and all very happy holidays.

My story Just Desserts has been published by Daily Science Fiction, my eighth story to appear there. It features aliens, desserts, and the settling of the solar system.

My poem How to Forfeit the Future has just been published in NewMyths.com Issue 53.

And my poem Cherry Blossom 2050, first published in NewMyths.com Issue 46, has been reprinted in Twilight Worlds: The Best of NewMyths Anthology Volume II 🙂

I’ve just signed a poetry contract with Andromeda Spaceways, which promises to be the first time I’ve had a poem published in an Australian magazine 🙂 [Back in the day, I had a couple of short stories published in Altair, an Australian magazine that has since disappeared.]

My poem Heroine is in the new issue of Uppagus, my thirtieth poem to appear there. I’m very grateful to them for giving so many of my poems a home.

My poem “After Zhuangzi” (Eye to the Telescope #38, October 2020) has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize, my second nomination in one day!! 🙂 🙂
