NEW Full Of Crow with oodles of poetry!

The new Full Of Crow April issue is alive and includes two new poems by me and oodles of other creative creatures!Thank you to Full of Crow poetry editor Elynn Alexander for all her creative flow.

Here it is - http://www.fullofcrow.com/poetry/2016/04/full-crow-poetry-april-2016/
Here is what Elynn Alexander had to day about this new comeback issue -Full Of Crow Press would like to officially announce and share our "comeback" issue of Full Of Crow Poetry, the first new issue after our year-long hiatus, It is jam packed with great poets. "The contributors are a mix of new and old friends of Crow, emerging and seasoned, international, diverse… as usual - a range of voices from as many perspectives as I could mix into the space.""People say that it is difficult to get a handle on WHO we publish. I like it that way. That is poetry. That is our world. Full Of Crow is like a diner. You never know who will be there, eating pie, or why."-Elynn Alexander

New Review of Pigeons and Peace Doves by Matthew J. Hall

"On the surface this may seem depressing, and people who want flowery life is wonderful, everybody is happy messages shoved up their asses probably won’t relate to this, but if you’ve ever struggled to want to keep living, a book like this helps the journey."

from a new review by Peter Jelen of the Blood Pudding Press poetry chapbook, "Pigeons and Peace Doves" by Matthew J. Hall
