This is what water, wind and time and toil reveal

The mail brought my contributor's copy of Not One of Us #84, containing my poem "The Burnt Layer." It's the one with the five-thousand-year-old sky axe and α Draconis; it is short and important to me. The flight issue is a powerhouse, showcasing the short fiction and poetry of Jeannelle M. Ferreira, Zary Fekete, Gretchen Tessmer, Francesca Forrest, and Patricia Russo among no-slouch others. I love the warping truss bridge and the birdflight of the covers courtesy of John and Flo Stanton. You can read a review, pick up a copy, submit work to the next issue and I recommend all three. This 'zine is a seasonal constant. It even feels autumnal at the right time of the year.

It's a great issue. I really need to do reviews, though, even when my own stuff *isn't* in the entry. John always puts together a good zine.

I would love it if you did! Not One of Us hardly ever seems to pick up reviews except sometimes from Rich Horton.

You always do very well with time, as far as poetry. And as a rule the shorter you go the harder it punches.

Thank you. It's probably physics.

I bought it and enjoyed reading it--the last thing I read before all the books got packed.

What an honor! I'm glad it arrived in time for that.

Thank you! The publication deserves longevity via cash money, and also it has me in it and I thank you for reading!

Yay! It's a particularly strong issue. (You should send something for the next one.)
