bear creek haiku

I'm sure many of you have never heard of bear creek haiku. I never had up until a few months ago, when I found it online and submitted a few poems. Editor Ayaz Daryl Nielson chose one of my poems for the current issue, #78, and I received my contributor's copy this week.

It's a small magazine (which is fitting since it mostly publishes haiku), but it contains some very strong poems. Some well-known contributors include Alan Catlin, Peggy Dugan French, and Dorothy McLaughlin.

Also, the new issue of Yellow Mama (#8) just went live. Check it out. It's got dark stories and poems by Kenneth James Crist, John Grey, and Lyn Lifshin.

Black Petals #40

Black Petals #40, the 10th anniversary issue, is on sale now. I'm happy to have two poems included in it, and any horror fan should definitely pick up a copy of this issue. As Black Petals readers have come to expect, it's got stories and poems from some of the genre's top names -- Kendall Evans, Barry J. House, Kristine Ong Muslim, Garry Charles, and Aurelio Rico Lopez III, to name a few.

This issue will also be the last issue edited by Kenneth James Crist, who has done an amazing job with the magazine over the years. It's unfortunate that he has to step down, but if it means he'll be putting out more fiction collections like The Gazing Ball, then I can't say it's a completely bad thing.

And if you like Black Petals, check out issue #2 of Yellow Mama...
