Acceptance!

Dear Don Kingfisher Campbell, 

Thank you for submitting your poetry to the anthology, UNSINKABLE: POETRY INSPIRED BY THE TITANIC. We would like to accept “Queen Mary.” In some cases, we will make necessary copyediting changes and contact authors about suggested edits.

As we mentioned, we are planning to publish the anthology with Salmon Poetry Press with a pub date in 2026. As soon as possible, we would greatly appreciate it if you could email us a bio of 50-100 word to this address. We will soon email a permission form which is required for your poem’s publication, and we will ask for an updated bio, if necessary, closer to the pub date.

Each contributor will receive one copy of the anthology. We have begun to work on setting up Unsinkable poetry readings, and if you have any ideas for such events in your geographic area or anywhere else, please let us know. We are also developing a marketing plan, and if you have any ideas, please let us know.

Thank you for your participation in this project.

Best regards,

Margo Taft Stever, Sandy Yannone, and Susana H. Case
