James Feichthaler is a poet and essayist whose work has most recently appeared in One Art, Sortes, Schuylkill Valley Journal, and the Mad Poets Society’s Local Lyrics series. His new book The Rise of the COVFEFE, a poetical satire of these divided and uncertain times, was published in late 2020 by Parnilis Media. He is also the host of an open mic reading in Manayunk, PA called The Dead Bards of Philadelphia.

 

M. Elizabeth Hershey is originally from a Midwest university town in southern Indiana. She graduated from Brown University with a BA in Visual Arts, where she studied much of her art degree at the accompanying Rhode Island School of Design. She works in several mediums, but photography remains her primary passion and profession. Look to the North is her first published chapbook, in which each poem depicts a memoir of a moment in time approaching middle age. She also has a passion for piano, speaking Italian, and finding four-leaf clovers.

Jonathan Koven grew up on Long Island, NY, embraced by tree-speak, tide’s rush, and the love and support of his family. He holds a BA in English and Creative Writing from American University, works as a technical writer, and freelance editor (and formerly head fiction editor of Toho Journal). He lives in Philadelphia with his best friend and future wife Delana, and cats Peanut Butter and Keebler. Jonathan’s debut chapbook Palm Lines, and his award-winning novella Below Torrential Hill are available and the current list of his publications is available at https://linktr.ee/jonathankoven.
