[Stylist] Congratulations to Barbara Hammel. Plus information on publication possibility.

[llambert at zoominternet.net]

Greetings on this Autumnal Weekend,

 

I love to hear about  friends  in NFB Writer's Division getting their
writings published and  sharing their poetry  with others.

A BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Barbara Hammel - who received 2nd Place in Poetry
in the Magnets & Ladders magazine's fall /winter issue.

Barbara's poem is stunning - and well-deserved of this honor. 

 

I'd like to see Barbara's winning poem  posted  here for us to enjoy.  How
about it, Barbara?

Here is another opportunity for those of you who write Nature Poetry.

Editor, Charles Portolano, welcomes nature poetry submissions  for The
Weekly Avocet.

One BONUS is that he will publish previously published poems. That is rare -
so if you have a great  nature-themed  poem that was already in Magnets &
Ladders,  Slate &  Style, or another periodical, you can send it to Charles.
You just might get it published again. 

 

Even if you don't have a nature poem, it would benefit us all to read the
guidelines here, because Charles gives some very good information on what an
editor appreciates when we send in our work as a submission.  

 

Below: The Guidelines for entering your Nature Poetry to The Weekly Avocet.

 

Please read the guidelines before submitting  

             Only one poem, per poet, per season.  

 

Please send your submission to angeldec24 at hotmail.com
<mailto:angeldec24 at hotmail.com>   

 

Please put (early or late) Fall/your last name in the subject line.  

 

Please be kind and address your submission to me, Charles.  

 

(Just so you know: I do not read work from a poet who doesn't take the time


to address their submission to the editor, who they want to read their
work.)  

Please do not just send a poem, please write a few lines of hello. 



Please do not have all caps in the title of your poem.  

Please no more than 45+ lines per poem.  

Please no religious references.  

Please use single spaced lines.  

Please remember, we welcome previously published poems.  

Please put your name, City/State, and email address under your poem.  No Zip
codes.  

Please send your poem in both the body of an email and an attachment.   

 

Good Luck to you and I hope to see your work published.  Lynda
