But no one could surmise/The reason--what had someone done amiss/To rate the wrath of Lady Artemis?

So the SFPA has started up a new online magazine: Eye to the Telescope edited by samhenderson and Deborah P Kolodji (whose LJ I ought to know). One of the benefits of an online magazine is that it can include long poems, or at least longer than the usual for magazines. The inaugural issue is up, and it includes my "Myrmidons in Calydon."

This is another Greek myth sex farce -- specifically, a sequel to "The Myrmidons." Or to put it another way, the second chapter of an epic cycle of which three and a third chapters are written. In this installment, the titular Ant-girls "help out" with the hunt for the Calydonian Boar. The plan is to travesty write a secret history version of Greek mythology through to Troy. (Which means finishing the long-stalled "Seven Myrmidons Against Thebes.")

Anyway, the first issue is up and ready for readin' in your copious spare time. Go, have fun digesting, because in addition to my bit there's some good stuff there. No direct link to the Myrmies, sorry -- you'll have to scroll down past a lot of good verse along the way. And when you're done, continue on to tastiness by stillnotbored.
