What You Should Know On This Day

Posted on by

The September issue is alive and kicking and this issue is really something special. In this issue you will find two sharp poems by Corinna Bain including one, “Girls Putting on Make-Up on the L Train,” with language so carefully orchestrated you can imagine the rocking of the train and the trembling hand trying to paint a face. In “Units of Measurement,” Saehee Cho writes of a woman coming to grips with losing her hair in a stark yet moving way. You will also find amazing writing from Stefanie Freele, Court Merrigan, Ian Golding, John Jodzio, Teresa Milbrodt, Shira Richman, Danielle Shutt, Aimee Pogson, Kirstin Chen, Brandy Wilson, Aimee Vitrak, John McKernan, Tyler Sage, Regina Marshall, Tess Patalano, Kit Frick, Thomas Patrick Levy, Suzanne Marie Hopcroft, Tessa Mellas, Wendy Xu, Blake Kimzey, and Andrew Briminstool.
