OK. So I have been thinking about this and will just come right on out with it and tell you that I am jealous. OK, I said it! Jealous, jealous, jealous! But still love you. Big, heartfelt congratulations to you.

Thanks Sherry. The trick is: you gotta submit! I was stunned when they sent me the news. And I owe Ron Wallace for giving me heads up about the Mexico issue and that I should submit some of my Rosarito work.
Merriest of Good Wishes sent to you and Michael!

I knew your stuff was going in this issue the moment I saw the format. This is no small feat; Nimrod is one of the most prestigious poetry publishers in Oklahoma and Texas. Way to go, Lynn. Ron
