Hey, Susan,

 

I'm new to your poetry, but I like what I've seen (and I'm from VA, too). Would you consider submitting some poems to the online journal that I edit? I think your work would be a good fit. The journal is r.kv.r.y. and it's a recovery-themed journal. You can take a look at it here: http://www.rkvry.com

 

Cheers,

 

Mary
