			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;ve been wondering about the silence on this side of the Web, I guess now is the time to break it. I would like to say Happy New Year to my loyal readers and say that it&#8217;s been a great holiday for me &#8211; but I&#8217;m just as glad it&#8217;s over. I will soon have some very exciting news.</p>
<p>I am in the process of redesigning both the <a href="http://www.world-class-poetry.com">World Class Poetry</a> website and this blog. It&#8217;s a slow go as the poetry site alone has more than 200 pages and I&#8217;m making some significant improvements that I hope will make the site more social. Aside from that, I am also continuing to review books and work my day job, which many people have told me not to quit. They&#8217;ll be glad to know that I&#8217;ve taken their advice. <img src='http://www.worldclasspoetryblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>At any rate, just dropping in for a report. Look for more news soon.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A few days ago I discovered a new poetry journal in the form of a blog. This appears to be the latest trend in online publishing and one I welcome and admire. The blog format is the perfect online format for ongoing publication and suits the journal just fine. I was impressed with <a title="breadcrumb sins" href="http://breadcrumbsins.wordpress.com" >Breadcrumb Sins</a>, both its design and the quality of writing featured there. So I sent Phil Lane, the editor, a few poems. He published all of them.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not all that common that you&#8217;ll find a journal that will print previously published material. But it clearly states in the guidelines that Breadcrumb Sins will accept previously published poems. I sent them one that had been published in my local newspaper and I&#8217;ve been wanting to get it a wider distribution. I believe it&#8217;s one of my best poems. Phil loved it. Thanks Phil!</p>
<p>&#8220;Old Goth&#8221; is the title of the poem. You can read it along with two others &#8211; &#8220;Nocturne: Battlefield Sonnet&#8221; and &#8220;The Markets&#8221; &#8211; at <a title="breadcrumb sins allen taylor" href="http://breadcrumbsins.wordpress.com/featured-writer/#comment-42" >Breadcrumb Sins</a> (direct link). Be sure to rate the poems using the stars at the top of the page.</p>
<p>On another note, World Class Poetry is in transition. I&#8217;ve got some new changes coming at the beginning of the year. As a result of my focus on moving this blog and <a title="world class poetry" href="http://www.world-class-poetry.com" >World Class Poetry</a> into a new direction, I&#8217;ll be posting less frequently until the changes are complete. Thanks for reading!</p>

<p>I&#8217;ve been fighting a cold now for three days. So no video today. We&#8217;ll be picking back up on video Friday next week.</p>
