Really thrilled to be sharing space with Sarah in this classy 'zine, too!

Stand Magazine has also accepted 4 poems: Frog Oral Cavity: A Random Dissection of Wednesday, He drafted, Rehearsal and Falling into a Manhole is Considered Lucky in a future issue, sometime in 2007. I'm quite ecstatic. I used to read copies of Stand at the British Council back then... never imagined I could get in!

In fact, I'd already given up on them (see response time below):

Boxcar Poetry Review is featuring two pictures I took at the Central Cemetery in Vienna in their March 2007 issue. Wheeeeee!! Here's a thought bubble:

• And last but not the least, I became a second-time aunt to the thirstiest baby girl in the East on March 5. She feeds almost every hour or two... breast milk and formula. Totally ravenous.

Beautiful, evocative photos in Boxcar and Stirring. Congratulations.

Also, looking forward to your selections for The Pedestal.

Holy cow! Is there anyplace left that you haven't been published?! Congratulations, Arlene. It's great to see you getting so much recognition for your lovely work.

And my sympathies to your sis-in-law. My girls were both thirsty babies AND slow eaters. By the time they finished nursing, they'd be ready to start again 20 minutes later. I bet you are one doting auntie!
