Dear readers,

Happy summer. I'd like to share some news with you: I'm delighted to
announce that two new editors, the wonderful poets Lily Brown & Claire
Becker, yes: Claire Becker & Lily Brown, will now conduct your weekly
encounters with RealPoetik. It's been an honor sending poems your way for
three years (some of them yours!), & reading your comments and submissions.
I send hugs and take a bow. I hope you'll keep in touch: write to me at
anabobo at gmail.com, visit me at www.nightcommute.org, and look for my book
due out from Tarpaulin Sky Press in the fall. I'll be reading on with you,
so let's see what Lily & Claire have in store for us:

We're excited to be taking over editorial duties at RealPoetik and look
forward to building on the work Ana and previous editors have done.  The
poems published as emails in RealPoetik are able to go virtually
anywhere--read on your phone on the train, aloud to your dog, on a braille
display; or printed out and scribbled on; deleted; or replied to.  Through
email and the RealPoetik blog, we will bring you poems straight from the
physical world, where real-live poetry communities won’t be superseded
anytime soon.  We're dedicated to publishing poems that are engaging,
challenging, and aesthetically diverse.  We look forward to this new
endeavor and would love to hear from you at any time!
