Issue two of Inkscrawl is up today, featuring my little poem
The Sea Torn Heart, along with work from Sonya Taaffe (
sovay),
Alex Dally MacFarlane,
Alexandra Seidel, and many others. Inkscrawl focuses on minimalist - i.e., short - poems; some of you will be shocked to find out that I could write anything brief, but it happens, as you'll see here.
Have I mentioned how much I love this zine, as well as the proliferation of zines that either sneak some speculative poetry in or drown in it? Such a marvelous change from the days when finding these sorts of poems was a rare event, something that left me hungry for more, without knowing where that more could be found.
And speaking of Alexandra Seidel, she's also the poetry editor over at
Fantastique Unfettered, whose third issue should be coming out this week. I just got a sneak peek of the issue emailed to me, and I can say it looks awesome (PLUS MY STORY HAS A DRAGON ILLUSTRATION and WHY YES I'M SHOUTING ABOUT THIS BECAUSE DRAGON=AWESOME!) and I'll have more to say once I've had a chance to read through it.
