i am going to bomb this.

too spaced to do it right, too grounded to take it lightly.  and i'm sorry on top of things.  i have been too.... and not enough....  i forget the sensation of firmer ground.

balance, you say.  what's that?

Did you know that Frontenac House (a publishing house based in Calgary) usually publishes four books of poetry per year, among their other publications, but that for 2010 they'll be publishing 10 books of poetry, and the judging is totally blind (I think they normally have a roster of poets that submit each year, and possibly some unsolicited manuscripts as well).

So for the books to be published in 2010, everyone has an equal chance of getting published, whether they've been previously published or not.

The deadline to submit a manuscript is coming up soon, though (I think sometime in September this year).

Anyway, if you have a chance, you should check out their website, where they have more details: www.frontenachouse.com

If you have enough writing for a full manuscript, I think you'd have a good chance of getting published - your writing is so good!

Talk to you later,

Sarah :)

this reminds me of song lyrics

"To low to find my way
To high to wonder why
I've wandered through this place before
Somewhere in another life"

I hope you're well.

funny - i hadn't listened to this song in a couple of years, but i was recently re-introduced to it earlier this month by a new acquaintance of sorts. perhaps it is seeping into my subconscious and subtly revealing itself in daily life. i hadn't made a conscious connection to it until you made this comment.

neat. :)
