This is an official Thank You to all of the Enloe Tangsters who submitted their poetry (and prose and artwork) to Enloe's Stone Soup magazine.

The magazine is being printed right now and (hopefully) will be finished and arriving in pretty cardboard boxes at Enloe sometime this week. Some of the poetry that was posted here on Tangst (and the Etc. Clause) is in the magazine, and I am honored that you took the time and effort to submit it. It is amazing work, and the magazine is a better production for you having submitted.

So thank you. Thank you for caring. Thank you for your courage. Thank your for your time, your effort, the use of y0ur creative mind. Thank you (if I know you personally) for not killing me for yelling for the millionth time "Have you submitted yet?". For those of you who submitted and are not in the magazine this year: thank you as well. We still appreciate it, believe it or not. Thank you to everyone who bothered to put something on paper or send out an email and braved judgement from unknown (or perhaps known) eyes.

Nothing like going out of your way to write, edit, and fret endlessly about a poem only to have it dropped without a word. Of course none of us want a Poetry.com "Yay, everybody wins!" type anthology, but rejection just sucks, you know?

AHHHH Stone Soup. Stone Soup. Stone Soup. Stone Soup. For the past few weeks and months, I have wondered, in passing Ms. Chappell's classroom - when is it coming out? When is it coming out? When is it coming out? Stone. Soup. AHHH.
