Poetry Comix #8 is out and about!

Look for free copies in various local spots, including Strange Maine, the store, at 578 Congress Street, Portland, Maine. I've also dropped copies at The Kave in Bucksport!

Issue #8 has a killer line-up of some very talented folks that are getting their fingers inky for you, including Emily Maiden, Bob Bergeron, Joe McVetty, Greg Souza, Sean Newton, and a brand new submittor, Boo (of Covered in Bees fame!).

What are you waiting for? --SUBMIT your comic for issue #9 now!!!

The guidelines are very basic:
1. Art should be 8 1/2 x 11 (one piece per issue can be 11x17 for the centerfold) and photocopy-ready. It can be up to 4 pages in length, if it needs to be, though most folks stick to 1 or 2 pages.
2. What do you do? Well, pick a poem, song lyrics, or a lyrical fiction excerpt that you would like to interpret visually, and go to it! We're pretty liberal here. Have fun!!!3. Submit by mailing to me at:

You could also get away with dropping it off at Strange Maine care of Brendan or Michael or whoever else might be working.
