Founding Editor

Submissions Editors
Kelly Spitzer was born in southwest Colorado but now lives too far from home, in the soggy jungle known as the Pacific Northwest. She is a Pushcart Prize nominee, and her work has appeared or is forthcoming in Cream City Review, Cezanne’s Carrot, flashquake, Vestal Review, NOÖ Journal, and other publications. Visit her at www.kellyspitzer.com, where she hosts The Writer Profile Project and blogs about neat stuff she can’t resist.

Thomas White is an avid reader and book collector from Tennessee. He holds a BA in English with emphasis on 20th Century American Literature. He is new to the arena of Flash Fiction, but is working feverishly to be published in what he calls his latest obsession. He continues to struggle with his efforts to create the next great Appalachian novel. He and his partner recently purchased a 103-year-old home on the National Historic Register with hopes to open a Bed and Breakfast in the next year. The home rehabilitation process has taken time away from his writing, but his guilt over not writing on a daily basis should generate some memorable prose.

Joseph Young lives in Baltimore where he writes and works as a freelance editor. His art writing can be found at BaltimoreInterview.com and his microfiction at verysmalldogs.blogspot.com. His work has also appeared in such journals as SmokeLong Quarterly, Mississippi Review, Exquisite Corpse, and elsewhere. He has a great interest in the visual arts and is busy collaborating with several artists, joining his words with their images.

Cover Artist
A native of Ohio, M. D. Ison lives with his wife of twenty-five years transplanted in the sands of the Gulf of Mexico. He studied Fine Arts at St. Petersburg College. In addition to the visual arts, he writes poetry, short stories, and novels. His online gallery may be viewed at http://www.martyison.skyedragon.com.
