Big Thanks to Glass

52º ~ gorgeous light this morning, small, cool breezes rustling the half-leafed branches, crisp

A short note today to send out big thanks to Glass: A Journal of Poetry.  The fine editors, Holly Burnside and Anthony Frame have seen fit to nominate my poem “Flood Plain” for the 2011 Best of the Web Anthology from Dzanc Books.

Thanks, Jeannine, I appreciate the link.
