The sweet smell of hypocrisy

You'd think that a literary journal touting itself as the nation's leading poetry magazine would invest in some proofreaders, particularly when urging potential submitters to prepare their work carefully.

You would be very, very wrong. To wit: check the last line in the first paragraph under "how soon can I expect to hear...?" below.


I would love to have a timely response "insured". What, precisely, would be paid to me if a timely result was not delivered? Hmmmmm the legal possibilities are fascinating, truly.
