Guess What?

There's no shame in being published by one's friends. In fact, more poetry should be published this way.

If you disagree with me on this, you're a moron.


Thank you kindly.

Damn, skippy! Look at what we would've missed without Pound's cronies.

Contests, however, are a different matter.

these people that think that poetry could go anywhere without friendship---they are just out of their minds.

A publisher -- especially a poetry publisher, where there's no realistic expectation of money -- ought to publish what excites him/her, what makes putting all that work into the project a continuing pleasure (even when it's a total pain). If there's a personal element to that, well, how rare to have it otherwise!
