Actually it's your more recent blog entry, which I guess isn't mirrored here yet, that I wanted to comment on--about a poem that came out in song.
I have one too! I didn't want to share it yesterday, and today I've gone overboard with posts, but tomorrow I will. The tune came with the words (the words are actually not so very great, but I was pleased about the tune).
Let's hear it for poetry you can sing--even if you feel shy to share it.
I did, in the end, put up a recording. It's nothing to write home about, but I liked it, and was happy to have a circle of people to share it with. I know you are more reserved about sharing stuff like that, but can you say what sort of a tune it was, for your poem?
Also re: cover letters (Glass Seed Annual)--it does seem a number of places say, "Only write us a cover letter if you really must, and by the way, we don't like reading them." So perhaps that's why you're getting submissions without them. Very glad you're getting submissions, though! And I would still like to write you one myself, for submission! Fortunately I still have time...
