Back to Journal  « 2007 Submission Log: Weeks 35-37 | Sale! "Squatter's Rites" to Weird Tales | Trinoc*coN 2007 Con Report » Sale! "Squatter's Rites" to Weird Tales September 25, 2007 Via email (from poetry editor/creative director Stephen Segal), 52 days. "Squatter's Rites" is a poem that tells a quick ghost story in 12 lines. Weird Tales is a magazine that, in its previous incarnations, launched the careers of Ray Bradbury, Robert E. Howard, and H.P. Lovecraft. In its current, quite-strong form, fellow Clarion '06er Will Ludwigsen has a poem (and a few other writers I admire have stories) in the current issue. I'm in excellent company. Flattered and honored. I still remember getting my first rejection from Weird Tales (Guidevines wiki link) in my Ashland University mailbox almost nine years ago. This was my second sub--and first poetry sub--to the magazine under its recently-changed creative masthead. Phew, I needed that.
