I hope with Siren I come down on a fair side of that question. Hmmm. 'Something to think about.<BR/><BR/>Hey Kristi, I just discovered your blog; it's really quite good -- and you post regularly, which I can't seem to do nearly as much as I would like to. I love the cover of Fever Almanac! And the title is equally great. Let me know if you want me to post it on Siren's "News & Notes" page next time I update it, which will be by September 1st.<BR/>I list all Siren contibutors' blogs that I know of on my blog, so I'll add yours -- 'glad I stumbled on it, and kudos on maintaining such a good one.Sara Kearnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10009406545077045857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11262289.post-11840534166292541092007-06-30T07:23:00.000-07:002007-06-30T07:23:00.000-07:00Plus there's the fact that my blog is 'protected' ...Plus there's the fact that my blog is 'protected' so it's not exactly a public forum, yet obviously some people can read it--so that seems to confuse the issue of whether or not blog-posted poems count as published even further...<BR/><BR/>I really enjoyed your dusie chapbook, by the way. I read it a few days ago and plan to read it again soon (hopefully today).Juliet Blood Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14594078209182239805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11262289.post-51870895327784333262007-06-30T07:21:00.000-07:002007-06-30T07:21:00.000-07:00I agree with Reb, too.

This little section especially hits home for me:<BR/><BR/>'I understand magazines wanting work that hasn't appeared in other magazines, but when did editors start competing with the poets' ability to promote their own work? Why are we talking about exclusivity as if there's money involved? Or this mythical "one small audience" that apparently scours every single poem on Internet?'<BR/><BR/>This is a matter I hadn't thought much about until in the last six months or so. I've always been publishing drafts AND completed versions of my new poems on my blog and never considered those published and submitted them pretty much wherever I pleased--but more recently, there are magazines that I will pass on submitting too because I can't tell from their guidelines what their definition of published is, etc...Juliet Blood Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14594078209182239805noreply@blogger.com
