"O wonderful, wonderful, and most wonderful wonderful! and yet again wonderful! and after that, out of all whooping!"
After haunting the mailbox for a couple of decades (seemingly), I received an acceptance of my poem "From the Visitor's Guide to Tectonics in Cascadia" from Isotope, a print journal from Utah State University. They wish to make a small edit, but I decided I can live with it (and I see their point). This will be my first "official" publication by my definition, in that it will be in a national magazine and I wasn't affiliated in any way with the editors. "Whoo Hoo!", she says, exuberantly happy-dancing and scaring the cat.

That's pretty awesome. Congratulations!
That's lovely, Jennifer! I'm so excited for you!
Yay Jennifer! Yoo-hoo!
Congrats! I can't wait to read "your" issue of Isotope! I like that journal too.
Yippppeeeee! Congratulations!
Fantastic!!!
Congratulations! Wonderful news.
Congratulations! What is your definition of "official" publication?
And be careful - cats do get their revenge.
Anne, AD, Wendy, Peter, Jeannine, Suzanne, Paul, Oliver, C. Dale, and David -- thank you so much for the kind words! I'm still bouncing up and down.
David, "official" in that it isn't a local contest or a publication associated with a community I am involved with. And I owed the cat several, anyway.
Congratulations--that's great!
Thanks, Robert!
I realize I'm late, but BIG congratulations--not just on the publication but on the wonderful, jubilant title quote of this post: great pick. [grin]
Awesome!! Isotope is such a beautiful pub--we just started getting it at work, so I'll keep an eye out for your poem. :)
Thanks, Em. Yeah, it's a goody -- "Top that!" says Will.
Thanks also, Charles. They said 2005 or 2006, so you may have a bit of a wait ... we'll see.
Congrats! Great news! And give my love to the cat.
