Pleased and honoured again to have work in Vipers Tongue Journal from L-13 Light industrial Workshop. Available here l-13.org/product/vipe... Congrats to my fellow contributors. It’s a great journal, I hope you’ll consider picking up a copy. I know I am looking forward to the read.

Interview with the incredibly talented writer Tony O’Neill.(Digging the Vein, Sick City etc) I hope you check it out - link in the Bio or search Brian McGettrick blog.

Look at this beautifully produced book. In our digital age the physical matters more. ‘Psalms From the Badlands’ is a wonderful collection of "psalms" or haiku-like poems about the American southwest. Hosho is incredibly talented. Head to www.hoshomccreesh.com to find out more.

Bit of a revamp, new look for the site. All the old articles and book info is there, but some exciting new stuff is on the way very soon— including an interview, new book, and book reviews. I hope you’ll stop by and sure even sign the guestbook. www.brianmcgettrick.com
