Just a note that my poem “Field Notes Concerning the Bomb” was a finalist for the 2009 Consequence Prize in Poetry and appears in the magazine’s 2010 issue.

Many thanks to Andreas Morgner, the contest judge, and the magazine’s editor George Kovach, who is on the hunt for the aforementioned gremlin.

The receptionist nodded, fired up the intercom and said, "Mr. Taylor? There's a Mr. Nabococo
Congratulations, Joe! <br /><br />As for that typographical gremlin, your next poetic venture might be to seek out and detsroy the tedency sum peeple have for incerting that "n" where it sertainly does knot belong. But at least your name still remains recognisable–it could have been transmogrified into sumthing more cereel as mine was–from Vassilis Zambaras into Saffilis Zaengmac!
Dear Mr. Hutchinson, this is great news! It reminds me of one of my very first short story publications, when my name was listed in the contributors section as Michaelson.
