It's Coming Together

John Linton Roberson just showed the final cover by Molly Kiely for the eight issue of This Sickness, a title of his that has turned into a great anthology that rivals the likes of modern day zines like Mineshaft. I can't wait for this to be available to purchase.

I'm so psyched to be a part of this. Two poems of mine will be a part of this lineup. It wasn't too long ago that I was just on the sidelines reviewing this title. Check out my review of Issue #7 back in the defunct We Got Issues website here.

Sneak Peek

 
 This wonderful piece of art was sent to me via John Linton Roberson, who writes.
 
"First mockup of THIS SICKNESS #8 cover; no text save spine. Art by Molly Kiely(f) & Duong T.P.Hang(b).

"Other contributors include comics by myself, artwork by Emily Kaplan (in the first extensive collection of her magnificent and numerous paintings), poetry by Chad Parenteau, a new short story by Chris Dewildt, and illustrations by newcomer Gianna Ratto. As well as a new cartoon written by Charles Alverson & drawn by me."

Can't wait for this to come out. The only thing I'll add to this is that the poems included in this are part of my "Jesus Poems" series.
