Poets Gone Wild Review in Half Drunk Muse

Are we cookin' with gas or what? *big grin*

Seriously, my sincerest thanks go out to Sarah Miller, editor-in-chief of Half Drunk Muse, for this glowing review of the Poets Gone Wild Anthology. I contacted Ms. Miller out of the blue and she was generous and gracious enough to respond to me. She agreed to take a look at the book even though she could make me no promises about reviewing it. The offer of her time and attention alone was good enough for me. To have it culminate in this way, with a complimentary review that all the Wild poets can take to heart and people beyond our forum will read, is beyond my expectations. Thank you, Ms. Miller, for this recognition and praise!

Be proud, Wild Anthology editors and contributors. Your work has put Wild on the map!

Love,
M (Administrator)

Wow! That's great stuff, and Sarah's doesn't seem like the type to sprinkle her thoughts. What a great pat-on-the-back for all of you. Congratulations!
I must go pick up the baby now, she's not too happy about being dropped.

Now M, here you go not tooting your own horn enough.

Yes the review is done well, is complimentary and i do appreciate that is coming from a respectable mag.

BUT, you all need to go back to that web site and read the current issue for poetry.

What this dear woman fails to point out is two, yes two of her poems are in the current issue and that out of 12 writers, she is the only one with two. sigh, i guess i have to keep ever vigilant eh? ;)
