|
|
|
Believe it or not, I came up with a poem for a greeting card! The Abandoned Towers Zazzle Store now features a greeting card with my mermaid illustration on the front, and a little rhyme I wrote on the inside:
http://www.zazzle.com/mermaid_greetings_card-137133762952792229
At first, I wasn't sure if I could come up with an appropriate poem. My initial attempt at composing a poem to go with the mermaid was too dark for a greeting card. I began to wonder if I would be able to easily and effectively create a proper greeting card poem. However, my second try worked just fine. I'm actually rather proud of the result.

|
|
|
My poem "Life is the Life" won in the poetry category of The Monsters Next Door "Through My Eyes" Contest. I'm very pleased by this news. Actually, I'm ecstatic.
This is my first contest win. Wahoo!
The winning entries, including my poem, will be featured in a special half-issue (issue 4.5) of The Monsters Next Door, due out November 15th. I'll post a link to my winning poem when it's on-line.
November is proving to be a very good month. I have lots of stuff out, or coming out, this month. My poems "Chupa-Chupas" and "Midnight Encounter on Merais Minor", along with my article "Vampiric UFOs", appear in Issue 7 of Hungur:

Two of my illustrations appear in the November Issue of Abandoned Towers (print version). "Unicorn Enwreathed" accompanies the story "Minkus, the Masterful Magic-Mender" by Hannah Steenbock, and "The Professor Speaks" accompanies the story "The Mentor and the Apprentice" by Aaron French:

And that's not all for November! I've got more due out later this month. I will have a poem coming out in Every Day Poets on November 9th, and my contest-winning poem that I mentioned above. _________________ Richard H. Fay - Azure Lion Productions

|
|
|
My cinquain "Autumnal Woodland Morn" is now on-line at Every Day Poets here:
http://www.everydaypoets.com/autumnal-woodland-morn-by-richard-h-fay/
This is one of my rare forays into mainstream poetry, although I think my speculative roots still show. I'm very proud of my word choice in this particular poem. Everything came together just right.
Go check it out! And please rate my poem. And if you like, while you are casting your vote, please leave a comment as well. I would love to hear what you think of my little cinquain that could.
Thanks! _________________ Richard H. Fay - Azure Lion Productions
