Publication of the Monthx magazine

x magazine returns with it's usual selection of fine new poetry and prose with a focus on writers who read in public. This issue has an extra serving of short fiction to make up for the lack of an interview, but, as always, it is packed with great poetry from all around the world including contributions from Richard Healy, Thabani Gigaba, Jim Bennett, Keisha Moore, Isabel del Rio, Denise Saul, bohdan yuri and many more.

Grab it in store (Borders) or buy it online. Either way, it's worth an online read, or subscription.
