Our February issue is a wrap! All acceptances have been sent, and we're working on final edits.
And with that, our reading period for the April issue is now open:
A new web comic from one of our artists, Madari Pendas, with a few cheeky and very relatable observations about life after the MFA. 😀
Check it out!
Happy New Year!
As we wrap up the year and look forward to the next, would you consider supporting our 2024 chapbooks and projects with a donation?
Every donation counts! 😀
Cover art for my upcoming micro-chapbook with Rinky Dink Press.
Fits the spirit of the book perfectly!

Thanks! The book could be described as an artifact from a parallel universe - the planner side is usable as a planner or notebook, but revolves around a fictional lunar calendar.
And, like you'd guess from the title, there's a bunch of unicorn-themed art, much with a semi-Gothic / semi-William Blake sense to it.
A wonderful review of one of our new chapbooks, Unicorn Death Moon:

It's a good idea to send in subs early. We'll have holiday free time for the issue in December, a bit less in January after the holidays.
Our December issue is filling up, but we still have room!

More prose poetry and longer pieces would be nice.
