I have just had five more sonnets printed in Beth Houston’s second sonnet anthology, Extreme Sonnets II. As I explained last time, the point with the epithet is that the sonnets are extremely formal. They all employ iambic pentameter, full rhymes and traditional rhyming schemes.
My five sonnets are, in the order that I wrote them:
2008 The MUV Affair & I Sing the Sonnet
2009 On Our Silver Anniversary
2011 Mum’s the Word
2021 A Karen Blixen
The first four can be found in my collection of sonnets online. The last one is here.
Beth is now going to do an anthology of extreme love sonnets. Submission details will soon appear on the Rhizome Press website. All sonnets included in Extreme Sonnets, Extreme Sonnets II, and Extreme Formal Poems will automatically be considered.
