Orson Scott Card loves my writing?

Some readers may already have heard the pounding of my happy feet, but I received a very exciting letter the day before yesterday.  I submitted five poems to Strong Verse  , an online poetry magazine, and the letter said:

Thank you for submitting your poems to Strong Verse. We would like to publish all five poems that you sent.  Could you please send me your mailing address along with a brief bio if you’d like that included.

Our editor, Mr. Card, couldn't say enough good about your poetry -- he absolutely loves it and would love to see more.

A pretty exciting letter in any case, since Strong Verse is a paying market and had a 0.0% acceptance rate for the past year, but more exciting when I found out that the "Mr. Card" mentioned is Orson Scott Card, the author of Ender's Game.  Yowza!

By the way, if you have not read Ender's Game, go get it and read it.  Simply one of the best sci-fi novels of all time.
