Nain Rouge—First Edition

18 Comments

A little while ago, the members of dVerse Poet’s Pub were invited to submit poems to Nain Rouge a start-up online publication showcasing urban life.  This invitation came during the celebration of the dVerse first year anniversary.  The assignment was to write a poem about city life.

Sadly, this link to Nain Rouge no longer takes you to the page, but you can see my poem at Morning Town Ride.  Great to see Gayle‘s superb poem about Boston as editor’s choice on the first page 🙂

      • No, but it’s still 3 days shy of the 15th, so I’m not expecting anything until then–or around then as although the book will come out on my publisher’s site, there may be a lag time before it reaches Amazon and Barnes and Noble. But thanks for asking. 🙂

  4. Aren’t you the sweetest to mention me and link my poem, Polly…thanks so much for that. I loved your poem the second time around as much as the first…remember when I went looking for the chosen poems to read? Wasn’t that fun to be put in a new magazine?

          • Thank you :-). Oooh some cash would be nice, I’m not sure if the town council would be best pleased with what I’ve got in mind, although they are currently riding high on the back of a scary film/true story coming out that is set in Pontefract so you never know 😉
