Here is the cover. Keep your eyes out for it! Copies are always available at the breezeway between Village Books and the Colophon Cafe. Copies go fast!
It has been a good creative year. Folks are finding the zine, contacting us, asking to contribute with poems and art. The total amount of contributors is now at 50. It’s a real pleasure to be a part of it. The Corridor Collective has much to be thankful for.
