Congratulations Emma!

Emma says:

One of my poems from Liar, Liar, Lick, Spit has an outing at Shenandoah Literary Magazine, with an audio recording .... and a couple of edits for an overseas readership. It's wonderful to be part of this American journal's 75th anniversary issue: especially in a climate of erosion of the arts in the US. Editor Beth Staples says, "the new issue is a big, raucous, bountiful celebration of language and difference, and contains voices from all over the world." I hope you enjoy digging in!
