RED EFT REVIEW

Networking pays off in the poetry world. Like most introverts, I had a hard time accepting this. I'm uncomfortable mingling. However, those other poets aren't true strangers. We have a deep connection through our love of literature. Go ahead and say hello. They won't bite.

Red Eft Review is a brand-new poetry blog/on-line journal. I was honored to be its inaugural poet thanks to networking. Editor Corey Cook used to edit Orange Room Review and published several of my poems. The last time I got ready to submit work there, I learned it was closing down. I wrote a note to share both my appreciation and dismay. Corey told me he planned to start another journal in the future, so I've been watching and waiting.

He wants the same sort of writing he published before. Corey calls it accessible poetry of substance. If that's what you write, visit the site, follow the guidelines, and send him 1-3 previously unpublished poems.

Here are links to the two poems by me

message 1: by Lindsey (new)

Lindsey Thanks for the info, Alarie. I rarely submit to online only publications, but I will still keep it in mind. And thanks for "liking" my review of MUSIC I ONCE COULD DANCE TO. Hope you're doing well--missed you at my last two readings. But I understand: we're all so busy now.

Alarie Yes, Lindsey, I had a concert the night of your last event, and transportation can be a problem. It's easiest for me to catch you at The Writers Place.


message 3: by Lindsey (new)

Lindsey Sorry I missed the River Cow-Kacico event. Maryfrances had asked me to read for it, too. But I couldn't this year. I'm sure you performed well.


message 4: by Alarie (new)

Alarie Thanks, Lindsey. I was shocked to get a review of the performance. Fortunately, the reviewer liked me.
