*Submission (2), Paper Crow, 2/21
I recently discovered a market that published a poem of mine back in October never paid me (yes, I should have realized it earlier -- blame it on the pregnant brain). Having since learned that others have ALSO not been paid for their published poems and that the market is not responding to queries (including mine), I'm thinking of writing up a "Poet Beware" entry for them. I think I'll give them one more week, and then I shall have to eviscerate them (with words, of course). Stay tuned for literary bloodshed, heh.
Everything Else
EB made the tennis team at his high school! He's on the JV squad (he is only a freshman, after all), and has already played against two of the best teams in town. He has yet to win any matches, but he's really enjoying himself, which makes his former high school varsity tennis playing mom very happy, indeed.
