Put your tentacles together for the January issue!

Well, it’s 2024 now, which sounds suspiciously made-up and futuristic, but we’ll leave the calendar verification to the goblin particle astrologicians and focus instead on the dramatic unveiling of our one hundred twenty-third issue, which is stuffed with enough delectably weird stories and poems to sustain you through the cold, cold months ahead. Once you’ve bundled up and settled in with fiction from Jimmy Huff, flash from Jon Doughboy and Lydia Storm, poetry from Peter Dellolio and Patrick Meeds, and haiku from Nicholas Klacsanzky, you won’t even hear those unhinged winter winds twistering through the pines outside your cave. And be sure to visit the cosy cover art from Nini Kvaratskhelia.

Just in time for halloween e’en . . .

Dust off the gramophone, slap on your creepiest record of haunted-house sounds, and prepare to read our one-hundred-twenty-twooth issue in your best Vincent Price voice. With haiku from Tohm Bakelas and Arvilla Fee and verse from Sharon Kennedy-Nolle and Amy Wunders, this selection of bite-sized delights is suitable for even the most discerning trick-or-treater’s candy sack.

This Issue Is Golder than Nature’s First Green

Cover - Jersey Devil Press, Issue 120

It’s April, gerbils and ladybugs. The fruit trees are flinging their blooms on the floor like temperamental flower girls, the warm breezes are riffling the ostrich feathers on our fancy-ass hats, and the robins are CHOMPING WORMS IN HALF and EATING THEM RAW, according to Emily Dickinson, noted chronicler of bird and bee activities.

Like the season, this issue passes swiftly but leaves a lingering impression of wonders and delights. You can read it cover-to-cover and still have time for a sun-dappled stroll through the botanical gardens. Or a moonlit skulk through a haunted forest, if you are of the nocturnal persuasion. Poem from Paul Hostovsky; haiku by Albert Schlaht and Harrison Fisher; flash by Jim Suruda; cover art by Vivien Krantz.
