Paper & Ink: Best of the First Ten Years...

Considering the top drawer work found in issue after issue of the small press gem, I’m sure narrowing down this best of the first decade issue was tough rowing, so I am really pleased to have a piece make the cut. To my eye, Scumbag Press and DrunkSkull Books share quite a bit in terms of intention, only they’re far more active and consistent that the monkeys running my ship! I’m always jazzed to hustle a piece their way, and to share the pages with one of the best stables of writers around.

And rumor has it you can order a T-SHIRT to go with yours, so long are you get it in during the pre-sale, so why not let everyone out there know that you support the folks out here doing their thang, making stuff, and keeping those artistic fires burning!

Glister...

Glister...

Like Remnant Embers…

…the city lights, while knocking back some wine out at the volcanoes.

Our latest drunk poem brought to life…this time our friend and publisher Ryan Winters (the artist formerly known as Bradley) reads, and Tharinda Dharmasena and the Sri Lanka crew offer up their beautiful stop-motion animation once again. This poem, and its understated heartache, is one of the major tent poles to the larger story of the collection, and, as such, has always had a warm place in my heart.
