In addition to publishing one of my poems, Aaron was quite helpful in my search for submissions, both published and declined, of work by the late Alex Leavens, who took his own life last year. I am co-editor of his collected poems, Horsethief Meadows, coming out with Finishing Line Press later this year or early 2023. He published a lot of Alex's work, and I think they had a good relationship. Thank you, Aaron.

Thanks so much for the comment, Bruce. Here's a link to some of Alex's work:

One of my flash CNF pieces was published in Wild Roof earlier this year. Aaron was phenomenal to work with, genuine and caring. He’s been successful at expanding the journal in so many ways, including their first-ever zoom reading featuring past contributors. Well done!

Oh Reena! I'm so sorry! I had 3pm as the scheduled time on the Zoom link by mistake. When I noticed this and changed it last week Zoom was supposed to notify participants. I'm really sorry. I hate when stuff like this happens. I'll be much more careful in the future to make sure the zoom time is clear. I owe you part of your afternoon!
