“Out of the Ad Space,” by Jason Sturner

Last month was National Poetry Month, and I was linking to various poems — including those penned by friends of mine around the web.

I meant to share one by Jason Sturner, who is a prolific writer and very nice guy.  Here is a link to “Out of the Ad Space,” a speculative poem that was voted best poem in the September 2012 issue of “Aoife’s Kiss.”

I was distracted by a poem request from a West Coastie friend, and I took Jason’s out of the queue to accommodate Robert Frost.

Apologies, Jason!  Nice work!   🙂

Let’s all root for Jason Sturner!

His horror/fantasy poem “Faerystruck Down” has been nominated for the prestigious annual Rhysling Award in the category of “Best Short Poem.”

In addition to being an obviously talented writer, Jason is an extremely nice guy who stops to offer publishing advice for newcomers like me.  He’s exactly the sort of colleague you want to see succeed.
