Bought “an old purse” and mthw took photo with #birkensnake vol.7, said they seem to fit naturally, indeed. Plus birkensnake is beautifully bound magazine, really admirable.

I've been doing some housekeeping over at my old blog, reeling and writhing. I was reading about this journal, had a visit and thought some of you might like to know about how they took payment for the most recent issue in 2014. Such a lovely notion. I hope to add one myself soon, from an Australian writer.

Children who learn Latin are not obese. Sometimes their eyesight is failing. Sometimes they are struck on the back of the head by tethered balls. Sometimes they are struck on the back of the head again by tethered balls. Sometimes they are struck on the back of the head again and again, always by tethered balls.

Birkensnake co-editor Joanna Ruocco, "Public Education"

[invariablym]

Very excited to be a contributing writer in Birkensnake, whose editors took on a really cool and unique approach to issue 6, challenging traditional concepts of literary fiction, the role of the writer, the reader, and exploring the impact of a piece originally unintended for a larger, more public audience. The theme for this issue is "crossing thresholds" and for each piece, a poster was made, hung, and then photographed in various cities. Mine is posted outside a telephone booth, not sure exactly where.

Brian Warfield, Birkensnake's editor, has some interesting words regarding this issue here.

Birkensnake is a collection of weirdo narratives. Read it!
