Thanks very much for sending the
poems by Mr. McNair. We do like them, and
are glad to keep
“The Poetic License”
“The Bald Spot”.
I hope Mr. McNair does not have
a book publication deadline coming up
soon? Poems accepted now aren’t likely
to be published until fall—what with our
backlog.
Might be a good idea to put Mr. McNair’s
name on his MSS.? “The art of losing isn’t
hard to master…”, as Eliz. Bishop sings.
With all best wishes,
Sincerely yours,
John Frederick Nims
