contributor copy of Otoliths issue two, part one arrived yesterday, via Lulu.com. a very friendly gesture on Mark Young's part to supply this hard stuff for an online publication. it's a nice range of work. two reasons exist why you might consider purchasing one of the books published by Mark under the Otolith imprint (or is it an aegis?), to wit: the work is good AND you support an effort to get the work out. see, the world is working on ways to free up, isn't that it? hadn't we ought to lend a hand?
