Must say I’ve enjoyed what I’ve read of Relief: a Quarterly Christian Expression. The first issue came to me several days ago. The editors chose to mix fiction, non-fiction, and poetry together so that if you read from front to back you would splash through a variety of word imagery. They also chose to put their choice selections, the best of the approved submissions for the issue, in the front for special recognition. Let me echo their kudos here; writers Michael Snyder, Nancy J Nordenson, and Jill Bergkamp have submitted excellent work.
I should blog on some of the stories in Relief later. I wish I could reproduce some of the poetry, but no, you’ll have to pick up a printed issue to read these bits of elegance. If you don’t care for elegance, keep read this blog.
Hi Phil,
Thanks so much for thinking of me for the Weblog Awards. I’ll come back later and check out your place on the net 🙂
Thanks so much for the kudos on my poem in Relief!
Sincerely,
Jill Bergkamp
You’re welcome. You deserve every bit of praise you receive of that piece. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
Phil, just found your blog through the Relief website. Just want to say thank you for the kind words about my story. I’m honored and humbled by your kind words. Now, put down the toad and back away…slowly…
Mike
