Sure thing, Merril! ๐
Those of us who have gotten to know you truly appreciate all you have done and are doing for poets and poetry. We thank you for supporting and encouraging us by letting us know these journals!
It’s wonderful to hear that you’ve found these resources so helpful, Walt! I’m trying to move Vita Brevis from a little poetry magazine to a poet’s resource as well! Glad to know you think I’m on the right track ๐
Well, you’ve been very kind to this old soul and it js appreciated.
