Well, jeez, somehow we dragged this thing to Issue Twenty.
Yes, yes we did. And to celebrate we beefed up the issue a bit. Threw a few more ingredients in the old pot, you know? There’s an excerpt from Nay Saysourinho’s upcoming novella. It’s about a women with a bird in her chest who sings Motown. That’s right, Motown. It is, as one might guess about a story involving a women with a bird in her chest who warbles sweet, sweet soul, amazing. There’s this cover by Richard T. Walker (!), three paintings by James Chronisters, a scathingly raw piece of poetry by Anna Allen, new work by Peter Bullen and you know, so much more.
We’ve said it before, and we are saying it again: get yourself an issue right here.

TWENTY, (sigh), TWENTY. SEEMS LIKE A REASON TO CELEBRATE. WHICH YOU CAN DO, WHILE YOU READ THE NEW ISSUE.
In other news, we’ll be taking a short break after this issue to take a quick breath, get all of our new chickens in a line (whatever that means) and come back with another volume of art and writing and maybe other stuff. We will be back before you even notice we’re gone
MEANING, THIS WILL HAVE TO HOLD YOU OVER FOR A BIT. YOU’LL HAVE TO DOWNLOAD IT FIRST THOUGH.
See you soon.
