Telling It Like It Is - John Bennett
I've decided to
stand back
from the
truth &
tell things
like they
really are.
Some days, some days, only John Bennett will do. This Small Press Friday is one of them. If you need a taste more, try Battle Scars on for size.
It fits.
And is from one of my favorite small presses today, Kamini Press of Sweden. And tell Henry I said hello.
