Haven't started writing yet. Mainly because am convinced that I'm Gengivite Khan, ruler of the Moribondi Empire. One of the things I love about Civ 4 is the cheat commands. Teehee. And you just gotta love my beard. 
Recent acceptance:
Cinnamon Press accepted three poems: Desert, For things she doesn't know and chopping board for the Only Connect Anthology edited by Gail Ashton and Jan Fortune-Wood. Really excited about this — I saw so many familiar names in the contents list.
Submission date: 9 February 2007
Acceptance date: 18 April 2007
A new poetry-reading magazine:
Just discovered The Strix Varia today. Was touched and honored when the editor wrote me saying that they're running a close-reading by Lia Lynch of my poem, The 23rd Secret Love Poem — the one that won the Frogmore Prize last year. Wowza.
Simply love the idea of publishing — instead of poetry — essays, close readings, reflections and reviews on the work of living, published poets. Have always wanted to do a line-by-line reading/interpretation of some favorite poems and I know some of you do that blog-wise — so check it out. Even authors themselves can send a "reflection" on a published work (preferably online for the linking to work).

How very cool on having your poem chosen for a close reading - congratulations! And guess what?! My parents are giving me a new computer for my birthday, so I'll finally be able to run Civ 4.
Hey, how about coming back to 30/30? There's only 3 of us in there at the moment and it's kind of eerie. I may have to start commenting on my own poems soon. We could use a shot of Adreniline.
hooooooray for you, annabelle! :)
hey, i'd like to get back into the writing habit, but i don't see myself doing a 30/30 at the moment, what with working 40 hours and other stuff going on ... how about a 10/10 for a start? there isn't anybody there, so we could misbehave all we like (until froggie shows up, that is, and tells on us ...)!
i'll bring your bunny slippers, too. and a pole. and a hose. if you are really good.
sMOOOOOOOches,

I checked out the strix varia link and that is indeed very cool. What a wonderful idea ....
I started 10:10 today all alone folks. Need to roil the juice somehow. Any joiners?
