pay close attention to these folks

The Collagist recently dropped their latest issue with work from Michael Kimball, J.A. Tyler, Brian Evenson, and many more. The issue also features a review of xTx's Normally Special and Lidia Yuknavitch's The Chronology of Water, among others.

Lastly, the issue boasts the results of their first annual chapbook contest. I've included the list below, highlighting a few folks that I'll be paying close attention to as the now moment continues. Congrats to everyone.
