My poem “Ice to Water” has been nominated by The Dead Mule for inclusion the 2008 “Best of the Net” anthology from Sundress Publications .
This is a very special poem to me. I wrote it shortly after my son’s death. The nomination list was posted on Adam’s birthday. The poem is a tribute to him, and one of the most truthful poems I have written. It was perhaps the most difficult poem to write, but helped me process a little piece of the whole of my grief.
Thanks Dead Mule Editors, and especially Helen. I am deeply honored.

I presume they will continue. The Dead Mule hopes at least one of our poets and writers get in the anthology.
Awesome! I am in the clouds…:-)
Congratulations, Clare. “Ice to Water” is a powerful and deserving piece.
Thank you, thank you, Sam.
