The October volume of our favorite zine will go out into the world this week and next. There is some discussion about having a fun little meet-up, perhaps at Stones Throw, to celebrate the 50th Corridor, April 2027. Details will roll out probably after the holidays.

Corridor, Celebrating Creativity and Freedom of Expression
Here we are, May 2025, and the world feels upside down and sideways. Despite all this, poets are going to poet, and artist are going to art. Creative people will continue to do their part…I’m thankful to live in a country where freedom of expression is still available to its citizens.
Heartfelt Contributions: February’s Corridor Highlights

Coffee shops, book stores, Little Free Libaries and the like.
Poem: Four Corners of Ignorance
This Labor Day weekend I share a poem and remember one of the more unusual gigs I was offered. The parade was going to be canceled that year due to no organizer. A non-profit decided to organize it at the last moment. However, the regular, seasoned professional female host was out of the country. The city needed a female host— immediately. Could I messure up to the task?
Corridor Celebrates!
We did it! Over 27 poets, 5 artists, +400 copies of the 10-paged zines printed and distributed over 13 months from Poetry Month 2022 to Poetry Month 2023!

Over the next few weeks, I will share four of my favorite poems submitted to Corridor and submitted artwork as a remembrance of the year’s moments.

Corridor Zine Seeks Poems
After two months and two editions, the zine “Corridor” is off and running! Have you found a copy yet? Here is a peek at the covers. Please send in your original poem and/or art by June 15 to be in the next volume.
“Corridor” Zine Needs You!
I have a simple vision. A 12-page, 5×7, staple bound, free zine sitting there, waiting to be discovered. It is casual, it is no drama, it is free and it says “I love you, you got this.” You have coffee together and it follows you home. You become best friends.
