My poem Not Like This, first published in Apex Magazine, has won 3rd place in the 2017 Rhysling Awards in the long poem category 🙂 🙂

Also, my poem “Bespeaking: Riddles” is in the Summer 2017 issue of Star*Line. It’s a poem from The Sign of the Dragon featuring the dragon.

My poem “Unsaid” has been accepted for the September issue of Uppagus. It’s a poem that about King Xau and his second wife, one that I am fond of.

My poem “Elemental” has been accepted by Songs of Eretz Poetry Review 🙂

My poem “Dragon Mountain” has been accepted by Heroic Fantasy Quarterly 🙂 It will be my fifth poem from The Sign of the Dragon to appear there. It’s a poem from the perspective of Li, captain of Xau’s guards, and also features both Xau and the dragon.

My poem Between is online in Uppagus. It’s my fifth poem from The Sign of the Dragon to appear there 🙂

I’ve just returned from a trip to England to visit relatives, and I have several items to report:

• My poem “Venus, As It Might Have Been” has been accepted by Analog 🙂 This is my third piece to be accepted by Analog this year, the other two being flash fiction.
• My poem “The Travelers” has been accepted for the next issue of Eye to the Telescope. The poem first appeared in the Magazine of Speculative Poetry back in 2003.
• My poem Tirron is in the Summer 2017 issue of Mirror Dance. The poem is part of the King Xau epic (though not a poem with Xau in it).
• My poem On Reading O’Brian appeared in Songs of Eretz Poetry Review.

My light poem The End of the Line is online at Songs of Eretz Poetry Review 🙂

I grew up in London. Although it is years since I lived there, I am still attached to it. It will be in my heart today, in the wake of another horrible attack.

My poem “On Reading O’Brian” has been accepted by Songs of Eretz Poetry Review 🙂

I am delighted to report that my story “Extracts from the Captain’s Notes” has been accepted by Analog 🙂 This is my second short-short to be accepted by Analog this year 🙂
