I learned yesterday that my poem, “Punting“, was chosen as the poem of the week on the website of Third Wednesday Journal. It gave me such a lift, and reminded me, too, of how grateful I feel for all this journal does to support readers, writers, and artists.
You can sign up, if you wish, for a free email that will deliver a fresh catch-of-the-week poem to your inbox each Wednesday.
Hoping you receive welcome news today! Leslie
Nice to hear from you, Scott!
I will have to think about sports metaphors–do I have any others? (Yes, one about watching the Green Bay Packers play when I was in college….) Perhaps a vein to mine in the future!
It’s a neat trick to be simultaneously funny and pointed (pun intended). Good to see some feminist sports metaphors. Congrats on the publication, and also on being a guest editor at Third Wednesday.
Hi Beth,
That is a great way to put it! So glad the humor comes through.
Congratulations, Leslie! What a fun surprise and such a great poem. Sort of humorously heart-breaking or heart-breakingly humorous.Such great use of words!
