Yay! 
I was so thrilled when one of the Rubicon Press editors told me over the weekend that my chapbook, Secret Love Poems is ready to go to print this week. The cover art is by Oana Cambrea — who's been so kind to give us permission to use her image. Her works are simply divine!
Recent acceptances:
• Am scheduled to make my 13th appearance in Eclectica with a word challenge poem, The heart stops momentarily — and a sonnenizio on a line from Ros Barber, Aftermath.

• Will also have two poems, Liu Song Warms Himself By the Fire and Six Reasons I Never Write About Home in the debut issue (Fall/Winter 207) of Cha: An Asian Literary Journal. It's new, but has nice professional manners. Quickish response times, too. They're considering work from or about Asia, check them out.

Dear Arlene, great news about Rubicon Press.
By the way, now I have a blog, Tommaso Gervasutti. The blogger's is a mysterious world, I hope you'll be able to find Tommaso Gervasutti.
I would be happy, but God knows if it will happen, that this "rehearsal message" will get through to you.
I received a marvellous complimentary copy of Parameter with a poem of mine in it.
Did you know about "Parameter"?
Ciao, Davide
Oh my gosh, Arlene, the cover art to your book is just so divinely erotic - absolutely love how fitting it is for the theme - can't wait to get my paws (not dick's ; )) on it.
And talking of the-hots...your acceptance list is piping hot - oodles of congrats.

Arlene, I am trying to write to you through this blog. It seems very hard to pass through. I wanted to tell you I answered in my blog to your tip on Agenda. I am happy you could read my previous posts, I wasn’t sure someone could.
