[...] qarrtsiluni is looking for poems about “words of power” from now until the 31st of August, for publication in mid-September. I just came across this journal recently. It’s got a nice playful tone, and each poem is accompanied by a recording of the poet reading the work in question. [...]

First off this theme is going to be a whole lotta fun. There is so many places to go with this one.

I have a questions regarding previously published work. I read in these comments that you take work that has been posted on blogs so I assume you will take work that is posted on my website as well. Is this a correct assumption?

Many thanks and good work on this fabulous on-line publication!

Nervously considering submission for the first time(!), just a quick question… I see in the guidelines that work posted on blogs is not considered published, but if a piece is accepted, do you prefer it be removed from the personal blog? I’ve seen that caveat elsewhere.

Also: oh my goodness the topic is superb.

Yes, you may submit links to material you’d like us to consider from a personal blog.

Ok – I just wrote a note to the editors to say how amazingly cool I think Qarrtsiluni is, and then saw that I can make my comment here in public. So this is me saying it: This is the coolest on-line publication Ive come across – though I guess most people reading these pages have already figured this out. I think its fun to say the good stuff whenever I can, though, so here I am doing it. (Way too many opportunities in this world we’ve made for griping about it all…)

Truly wild behavior of the creative kind is rare and crucial. Seems like Qarrtsiluni might be just those things – rare and crucial.

Thanks Dave and Beth and may you prosper!
