Dear ,

It is wonderful to write you.

Recently, we have been sorting through submissions and doing our best to begin the process for Issue 5.1

We have also been active on social media. Have you been seeing us?

We opened a YouTube channel and want to use that to share our past issues with readers. Yes, we are on the hunt for poetry lovers.

For the writer lives for the reader our Editor Abasiama Udom says everytime.

We are really amazed to have crossed the 23 newsletter subscribers line. We are at 30, pop a bottle 🍾 Thank you for sharing this love for raw, different and divergent art.
