I made a comment on ...Yea,<BR/><BR/>I was partially my fault. I made a comment on the blog about my frustration about not getting into Fence after about 6 years. Note: I was always a reader and a supporter of Fence, not that that should count, but editors including me, complain that people don't read the magazines! It didn't bother me so much that I rejected, but more that I was not acknowledged. I felt like I was a just undergrad being rejected by Paris Review of something! Katy, finally, did contact me personally which was so cool of her. <BR/><BR/>RW read my complaining and took it too harshly. She made comments about my work in a very public way without even having read it! Try them 'Sam I Am, you might like them.' <BR/><BR/>I'm still jaded/hurt whatever. But, I've learned that whether anyone is in any given magazine is completely beside the point. There is no hierachy in poetry. We are all at the bottom together.Jennifer Bartletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15931457867406555423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20502279.post-41352467490228999472008-12-06T09:36:00.000-08:002008-12-06T09:36:00.000-08:00I wouldn't worry about what Wolff says about your ...I wouldn't worry about what Wolff says about your work. She has a habit of making off-the-cuff remarks, without any thought behind them. I was at a festival where she made a dismissive statement that she never saw a print-on-demand book that looked like a book. People at my book table couldn't believe her attitude.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
