Free Verse's cozy format is always so readable and accessible that I often read it right on arrival. That is true for no other magazine--literary or otherwise, and I get dozens.

How wonderful that you give voice to so many poets. It must have been an act of courage to start publishing Free Verse. And here you are publishing some of the finest poets from anywhere, and encouraging new, tentative voices.

I just finished reading your interview with Mark Turcotte. What an excellent interview. It is as good as I have read anywhere.

Thanks for the latest Free Verse which I just finished--without stopping, giving me a wonderful gift of enjoyment. All you offer me as a reader in just 12 pages! I say congratulations, again. Keep it up!
