2017 Winter Issue cover

Poetry, Fiction & Memoir
Soft cover | 112 Pages | $5

We’re SOLD OUT of hard copies but digital pdfs are available.

As editors, we think carefully about the sequence of pieces in each issue. Whether or not you read from cover to cover, we want the pieces arranged as if you do, to tell a bigger story with a collection of voices.

So, imagine our surprise (“oh no!”) when we discovered, at the last proofing, that the first piece and the last and all the pieces in between were in reverse order. We have no idea how this happened. And maybe we don’t care to know, because the happy surprise is that the mistake pleased us as much as our carefully chosen order. A reminder that it’s a good idea to try things upside down and backwards sometimes just to see what happens.
