Things I Did Not Write About in 2012, Part 1
As publisher, for the most part I have been happy with our evolving aesthetic and our presentation.

A winter day’s poem by Pamela Hobart Carter.

From Santa Fe’s renown Lisa Alvarado, a delicate poem of remembrance.
Hiked, On Premises
Fiction and metafiction overlap in the latest story from Nick Stokes.

Address: Splash, Wail, Roar, Remain, Stagger
Nick Stokes continues his exploration of an affair, imaginary and real.
Promising Young Women, Tonight at Elliott Bay
Promising Young Women by Suzanne Scanlon is a tiny book — in stature, I mean. A little square of pages and text bound together. But the story inside about Lizzie, that slowly comes together piece by piece, is so big that it enfolds us all.
