Issue 24/25 · Summer/Fall 2022
Welcome to our new world. As we struggled to come out from under the fog of Covid 19, we decided why not shake it up and come out with print editions of the Review. Below is a tribute to one of our authors, Gene Barry, recently passed, as well as poems from the print edition, and a non-fiction web exclusive. We’re so happy with this print edition that we will continue to publish it biannually. Let’s call them “double” issues. You can purchase individual copies, or SUBSCRIBE annually and receive $5 off. If you’d like to help us publish more great poetry, fiction, and non-fiction, consider becoming a patron. Enjoy!
