Ingrid Wendt has had three poems published in an online anthology:  Health and Illness, edited by Annie Ballardini and Obododimma Oha, under the masthead Fieralingue. My poems are “Pilgrim,” “Give Us This Day,” and “Meningioma.”  The URL is http://www.fieralingue.it/modules.php?name=Content&pa=list_pages_categories&cid=361.  Two poems, “After a Class in Seaweed” and “Benediction” are forthcoming in the anthology Poets of the American West, edited by Lowell Jaeger.  Also, my poem “Love in Venice,” has just appeared in  Love Over 60: an anthology of women’s poems, edited by Robin Chapman and Jeri McCormick, Mayapple Press.  I’ll be reading that poem with other anthology contributors at the AWP meeting in Denver in April.
