A Trunk of Delirium from Le Pink Elephant Press: Call for Submissions



The following is a call for submissions, poetry, art, and all, for a new publication, A Trunk of Delirium. The co-editor, Cheryl Townsend, is one of my oldest buds in the small press business. Through her Implosion Press, which she has passed on to others, she helped get Lilliput Review started 30 years ago this month (oh, Cat, say it ain't so - we can't be that frigging old). It is with great pleasure that, all these years later, I get to return the favor.

Send Cheryl and Suzanne your very best work, nothing less. It'll be worth it.
