Publisher's Description: In publication since 1999, we are an independent journal that appears online as well as in annual print issues. We don’t adhere to any particular themes or tastes, though some people tell us they see one, so who knows. Our past contributors include Stephen Graham Jones, Paul Griner, Robert Shapard, Kim Chinquee and many others. Stories and poems we published have been anthologized in W.W. Norton's New Sudden Fiction as well as Dzanc Books' Best of the Web.
