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 🙂

My short poem Shade has appeared in Silver Blade, my third poem from The Sign of the Dragon to appear there 🙂

I attended the SFWA Nebula Conference here in Pittsburgh. Probably the highlight for me was meeting Trevor Quachri, the editor of Analog, who is very friendly. Usually I particularly enjoy attending readings at science fiction/fantasy conferences, but I don’t think the Nebulas included any readings. I did get to go to several interesting panels, and to meet up with friends. (The conference being in Pittsburgh, there were many people I knew.)

I received my copies of Star*Line #40.2, containing my poems The Dark Equations and Advice to a Six-Year-Old, both of which are among my newer poems (written in January). And I also received my copies of The 2017 Rhysling Anthology, which contains reprints of three of my King Xau poems. Now I need to read through the anthology so that I can vote before the deadline….

My poem Lost is online at Songs of Eretz Poetry Review. It’s a short poem that attempts to say what The Lord of the Rings means to me.

I don’t want to be more specific at this point, but it looks as if some of my poetry will be appearing in Science 🙂 🙂 🙂

My poem The End of the Line has been accepted by Songs of Eretz Poetry Review. It’s a short, humorous piece.
