Book Revue – Bellweather Rhapsody

“A high school music festival goes awry when a young prodigy disappears from the most infamous room in the Bellweather Hotel, in a whip-smart novel sparkling with dark and giddy humor.” Welcome to my latest Book Revue – a quick, quirky way to review a book and know if it’s the right next read for […]

Presenting The Hitchcock Project

It has been suggested that I consume too much cable news. Personally, I fail to see the problem. I’ve always maintained that a hearty four-to-seven hour daily dosage of babbling pundits hashing, rehashing, and micro-hashing the events of the day is actually quite healthy.

Letter from the Editor – Read Instructions

“What is worst mistake you see in submissions to Crack the Spine?”  Want to make an editor mad? I mean, do you really want to just get her fuming and muttering obscenities under her breath?  Waste her time. This is not to imply that creative submissions are commonly, if ever, a waste of time in […]

Book Revue – The Dinner

Know your strengths.  I’ve heard this bit of advice my entire life. From dance teachers, when I tried to triple pirouette on my faulty left ankle. From college professors, when I wrote myself into a tizzy during a philosophy final essay. From editors, when I make a misguided attempt to eliminate dialogue from an entire […]

Letter from the Editor

When Crack the Spine Literary Magazine was little more than an itch somewhere in the back of my fevered imagination, I asked myself as essential question: “What does it really mean to be an editor of a lit mag?” Now, over six years later, I know dozens of potential answers to that single, weighted question, […]
