This is the last print edition for this anthology. I've needed to take a break from publishing for a while. In any case, this last issue has close to one hundred and twenty poets in it (from all around the English speaking world); with twenty or so artists featured; an interview with Basia Miller, a poet from Santa Fe, who's had a very interesting life; the winners of the Angela Consolo Mankiewicz Poetry Contest (Canadian John B. Lee, Americans Elain Mintzer and Alexis Fancher – special thanks to B.J. Buckley for judging this time); rounded out with essays and stories, including an essay on poet Tony Moffiet by John Macker. If you enjoy the poetry from the Southwest, Lummox 9 will give you a wide perspective of the state of the art, here in the small press. I believe there's something for everyone. Join us!
