Home Planet News
Issue 9 of Home Planet News is now available. I have a flash there at F.16. But the big news for me is Kang Euigoo’s review of The Blue House Raid at R.9. Thirteen reviews, two essays, five memoirs, one nonfiction piece (Robert Roth), two plays, 34 fiction pieces, and 91 pages of poetry, plus several features. And the artwork! Kudos to Frank Murphy for a marathon effort under duress.
