Ranger is an online literary journal of avant garde literature, music, video and visual art; the 13th issue was released recently containing the usual smorgasbord of weird and wonderful challenging works. I’m pleased to be represented in this issue with the glitch music video “Reality Programmer,” which includes difficult music from Hearasay in Paradox Lust.
You can view the video in Ranger here.
Online literary magazine Ranger recently released its 12th issue, another smorgasbord of experimental artifacts in textual, video, musical and visual forms. I’m pleased to be represented by six poems: “wiggy sip,” “pilled blame,” “prattle burn misc,” “About Calls,” “bastion fire crag,” and “mog turner.” You can read them here.
Utriculi is an online literary journal for experimental writing, and something of a “sequel” to Otoliths, both journals being published by Sandy Press in Australia. The second issue of Utriculi was released recently in print and digital formats, and it seems similarly encyclopedic in scope to the earlier journal, comprising another who’s who of the international literary avant garde. I’m pleased to be represented by five poems (starting on page 150 of Issue 2, Part 1): “guidelines,” “If those aren’t the reasons, what,” “jade slick,” “bezel delight,” and “blade lout parse.”
You can view the complete online issue, both Parts 1 and 2, here. The print issues are available via Amazon here.
My poem “The Grapefruit Hits the Grinder” was published in Mad Swirl’s Poetry Forum on October 14. You can read the full piece here.
My poem “Singing through the Flats” was published last week in the online journal Rat’s Ass Review Fall/Winter 2025 issue. It’s been a while, so I’m pleased to appear on the pages of this fine journal for outlaw poetry. You can read the full poem here.
My poem “Tortilla Mockingbird” appeared in Mad Swirl‘s online Poetry Form on May 27. You can read the full poem here.
The latest Chiron Review for Winter 2024m Issue #135 arrived recently. I’m very pleased to be represented with one poem “Are You There Cosmos?”
Chiron Review is a great read especially for those into “outlaw poetry.”
Recently received a nice email from Mad Swirl literary magazine announcing that my poem “Free Trip” will be included in their annual Best of Mad Swirl anthology for 2024. This anthology will present the best of 2024’s works posted on MadSwirl.com: art (4 artists, the best of each quarter), short stories (12 stories, the best of each month), and poetry (52 poems, the best of each week). The anthology is issued in print and digital versions; these have yet to be released, so stay tuned!
Ranger literary magazine released two issues this winter (!). I had poetry in issue #8. In issue #9, one of my glitch videos is included “That’s Edutainment.” Possibly could be filed under “video poetry”? You can check it out here. The video features music from Hearasay in Paradox Lust, a project which has a brand new Bandcamp page here.
Ranger literary magazine picks up where Angry Old Man (aka, Son of Angry Old Man) left off. It picks up the avant garde literary baton recently passed on by the now defunct Otoliths. Highly recommended.
A literary magazine for extreme experimental work, Ranger #7 was recently issued in September (alongside issue #6). Large eclectic roundup of interesting text, visual, video and musical work. I’m pleased to be represented in this issue by ten poems: “brass spittoons once so public,” “when you’re looking for answers,” “You’re trying to make, even if it’s just to have,” “There’s this way,” “tandem align,” “spatter. bits,” “Wooden Lightbulb,” “mass calculus,” “obligation,” and “window on the world to nowhere.” You can read them here.
