Big Poetry Giveaway 2013 Winners

The winners of the 2013 Big Poetry Giveaway are Ted Tingley, who will receive Nocturnes (Hyacinth Girl Press, 2012) and Allyson Whipple, who will receive They Say This, an anthology of poems and essays edited by Richard Jones.  They Say This = Numbers 47-48 of Poetry East, a wonderful literary journal. I'll contact the two winners for their addresses and send off the books as soon as it stops raining around here, so I can walk to the post office!

I understand that today is also Ted Tingley's 57th wedding anniversary, so congratulations to Ted and Ellen for a long and happy (!!!) marriage. It's a wonderful thing to have a longtime companion and to have kids and grandkids. And flowers. And work you enjoy. And a sense of humor. You are a lucky couple!
