Again, congrats; It is rewarding to see your work in print other than your own. It does give validation to the usual feeling of writer indifference, even if you knows it is worthy. But when it consistently falls on deaf ears one can’t help but feel doubtful. The ol’ slow leaching away of confidence…

Many thanks, Obb, again. For somebody like me with a relatively thick skin and retired time on my hands, I send my stuff to as many places as might remotely consider my work worthy of publication. Yes, I gets lots of ‘thanks but no thanks’ but they fade quickly with the satisfaction of occasional acceptance and being read by a wider circle than my loyal followers.
With persistence, I reckon your poems would eventually find a home on some of these sites, so go for it:

Thanks, appreciate the pointers. I fear there is a boutique niche minuscule market for the Obbverse brand of satire/snark/bitchy doggerel verse, but hey, nothing ventured, nothing rejected or even gained?
