Announcing Not One of Us #86

[lesser_celery]

“Welcome to our emptiness issue. We have an artist who paints an empty friend’s absence; an executioner whose family fills the void after he retires; a sister who helps her niece when she adopts a creature washed up on the beach; and a woman literally absorbed by a deadly mystery novel. Our poets speak of crooked paths and sheets clean as guilt, spells to undo hatred, a time-breathing dragon, food to eat at the end of the world, and not growing up to be alive.”
