Sorry, Cris, if I implied you were published as a poet by Salt, I was alluding to your having edited “The Salt Companion to Allen Fisher”.
---------------------------------
hehe . whatever . protesteth about what exactly? i want to read that poem called Not On Roddy's Radar . .
i'm not protesting at all . . except at yet another round of pedantic verge-tending . . not so much on your part per se Tim . . as on the part of those moaning that they thought Salt might not be a-g any more . . it has been muttered here very recently ;=)
i'm not a Salt author and Chris did turn me down as unmarketable a few years ago having asked for a m/s . . i have no investment . in fact based upon that xp i might have been expected to poo poo them but i don't and i'm not
i wish nothing but more presses and more magazines and more e-zines and more collections for brit-po . . more reading series et cetera; more people putting energy and time and even money into promoting diversities of approaches
yes i agree Tim eclecticism is positive . i just find the sniping and the moaning (a more general trait on both sides) boring and boorish when there are such better things to spend all of our time on and having made the tone all lumpy i'll shut up and let others put Salt onto the open sores . erm, for a change
