I figured I've shared enough bad news here that it was about time I shared something good going on in my life. Yesterday, I recieved an unexpected phone call from an editor wishing to post two of my poems in a medical journal. I'm reposting one of them in open today.
I was also asked by someone online if I'd grant permission for use of one of my poems on her website for the holidays. I gave my okay and today recieved the following link...so, as an early Christmas present to my friends here:
