We had nearly 100 submissions, and about 35 of them were worthy of being published somewhere, but selections have now been made for the Kendra Steiner Editions “Last Poems” chapbook, which will be KSE #115 and appear in mid-November 2008. To remind you of the concept of this project (which I borrowed from Ted Berrigan and adapted somewhat), I asked poets to imagine that they had 6 hours to live—-in that situation, if you could write only one poem, what would it be?
The ten poets who will appear in this chapbook are
LUIS CUAUHTEMOC BERRIOZABAL
EDWARD CHURCHOUSE
GLENN W. COOPER
ALEATHIA DREHMER
DOROTHEA GROSSMAN
MELISSA HANSEN
JACK HENRY
ADRIAN MANNING
DAVID E. OPRAVA
RYAN SMITH .
Six of these ten poets are new to KSE, and five live outside North America. Talk about bringing in some new blood! Thanks to all who submitted.
