poetry sale!
My poem "jungle red," crankily inspired by The Women (1939), will appear in The Cascadia Subduction Zone.
In other news, I had a lovely Wiscon in spite of the damn vertigo. (The vertigo seemed like it was on the wane last week, but it's been back with a vengeance the past few days. Begone, vertigo!)
Also, Leslie Howard is TCM's June Star of the Month. Last night I watched The Petrified Forest for the first time in years. I love the fact that they'd wanted to replace Humphrey Bogart with Edward G. Robinson for the film (Bogart had been in the stage play), and Leslie Howard sent the studio a telegram: "No Bogart, no deal." (After Howard's death, Bogart and Bacall named their daughter Leslie Howard.)
