heh, o.k... if ya got the balls, - male or fem (and if you've already bound, gagged, covered the kiddies with a stupid-lookin' halloween mask and tossed em in the crawlspace under the house with a candy corn shoved up each nostril),
then TRICK OR TREAT---click on that little white ball up there. yea, that little white ball and don't bypass any supermen on mischief night. (you'll need media player (free) or similar to view))


and here we go...there's a lot goin' on, so READ BELOW before you start flippin' through the hold - please!

every single contributor of the hold bursts of their own unique writing and art techniques and each month, there's no gettin' around adding more and more to this great gathering, so please roll out the red carpet and welcome the following who are not new to the literary world but gives all of us the opportunity to in share their remarkable talents- Kurt Nimmo, Laura Alleman, Joe Lisowski and Harry Porter - who submits through postal mail - welcome to the hold!

also elaine thomas and Kurt Nimmo team up with poetry and music in an mp3 format called: 'Some Room in an Unspecified City'

•• some of you may recall dickens', our on/off poetry contributor of the hold for the past few years and a very dear and close friend of mine. dickens is 55 years old, is faced with a long-term federal prison sentence for rape charges of a girl he met through the internet; who portrayed herself as a 19 year old. whereas she was only a 12 year old child...read more about the onstart of dickens' journal in my column
