Nothing Common About This One



Yesterday I received my contributor's copy of Death in Common
(the definitive edition of the anthology from Needfire Poetry).  The book looks fantastic (Bob Freeman did the cover and interior artwork), and the Table of Contents page boasts names such as Christopher Conlon, Barry Napier, J.G. Faherty, Martel Sardina, and Joel Arnold.  Editor Rich Ristow deserves credit for the brilliant conceit for the anthology (which gathers the posthumous monologues of the victims of a serial killer).  Reading like an even more Gothic version of Spoon River Anthology, Death in Common will be relished by connoisseurs of dark poetry.  I'm proud to be part of this fine volume.

    Joe, glad you liked. And, I'm sorry it took this long to get this book out! But, I have to say, it is where it needs to be.

    It was certainly worth the wait. Great stuff, Rich.

Please note: Disagreement is inevitable; disparagement is intolerable. You can differ from someone else's opinion without having to resort to an attack on that person (any improper/insulting commentary will be deleted from this blog). So please remember to show some civility to your M.R. brethren. Thanks--Joe.
