In the beginning, there was the Word.
I had fun answering this question on Quora, but in the middle of trying to add photos to my response, the folks at Quora removed it. Yeah, it was a weird, racist-y troll question, but I think I had a really good answer. Here it is. Did Armenians lose their ancient land, Antarctica, to penguins? […]
Holmes isn’t interested in courting a merry gang of inferiors, be they guys or gals. He certainly doesn’t want to convince some woman that she’s stupid unless she gives up her thinly-scripted life to follow him.

The line-up this time has some really great authors and poets, including a return visit from the wonderful Jessica Ceballos, who […]
After taking a hiatus in February due to Zine Fest and utter exhaustion, we’re back with a vengeance for March.
