New cover up on the main site

Thrilled with the July 2011 cover for Magnapoets, taken by Dave Wilson of Dave Wilson Photography. Have a look here.

YES, we're sold out of Butterfly Away, BUT

We're on backorder for another printing of Butterfly Away and it should arrive early next week. So, if you want a copy reserved from this batch, drop me a line at Magnapoets AT Gmail DOT com.

We still have copies of Many Windows, but we are close to being sold out of that as well. 

I have some poetry in this anthology

I usually don't mention the anthologies that publish my poems, just because - well, I dunno. But this is one anthology I'm looking forward to receiving. I haven't seen it yet, but Robert Epstein edited it and he does good work. It's called "Dreams Wander On: Contemporary Poems of Death Awareness". It's available here. UPDATE: Whoops! Wrong anthology. I'm in another death anthology coming up, but this is still a good collection and worth reading.

I also am one of the editors of this book (Take Five: Best Contemporary Tanka, Vol 3). A few of my poems appear in the book as well.
