Folks, I'm getting published (again). Some of my poems will appear in newLeaf 16.

I can't even begin to put into words how extraordinary happy I am.

Whee!!! Congratulations!!

And a silly question: what is newLeaf? A magazine?

NewLeaf is a poetry and prose magazine from my university. It may sound like a student's mag, but we have a high standart, and contributions from all over the world. Oh, and it's in English, btw.

My short story The princess and the rogue (http://www.livejournal.com/users/kohaku1977/75206.html#cutid1) was published in the last issue, which made me squee for days. :) Now they picked poetry, I guess it's going to be my Scotland stuff. Very exciting!

If you read the story too, will you write me a wee comment? I'm so curious if people really like it. When I read it, it turned out to be the highlight of the evening, but I wonder about the written form.

Right! Is newLeaf sold outside the uni as well? Just wondering since I´m going to Germany on the weekend.

I´ve printed your story and read it once today and I´m gonna read it a couple of times more. I like it a lot but I want to write you some "real" feedback, just wanted you to know that I probably won´t get round to that until next week.

NewLeaf is mainly sold at my university's bookstore, but if you want to, I can send you one. :) I don't think you will get it anywhere but Bremen. We're planning on selling it via internet, but there's just no money to do that at the moment.

As for feedback: Wow, I wasn't expecting anything besides whether you liked it or not. *blinks* You. printed. it. Wow. That's great. I appreciate your effort. Like, a lot! Don't fuss, write me a feedback whenever you find the time to do it.

I'm glad you liked the story. And thanks for caring so much, that you want to write "real" feedback. :)
