“The Faerie Folk” Is Rejected and Out the Door Again
2008 August 23
The Short Story Library rejected this short poem on August 18th, although the editor thinks I “paint a great picture with your poetry[,] however[,] the style I don’t think would be a good fit for what we are publishing for poetry.” Okay, rather awkwardly stated, but you get the gist. While there are no style rules stated anywhere on their site, I wasn’t devastated because, as I had indicated earlier, this poem was actually requested by a printed publication and I immediately sent it off that very same day to “People’s Art and Literature to Go” of San Francisco. I’ll let you know when it goes public.
