McIntyre and Joshua Lukin, essays by Steven Barnes and Christina M. Rau, a flash fiction by Nancy Jane Moore, poetry by Gwynne Garfinkle, Sofia Rhei, Mark Rich, and Sonya Taaffe, a Grandmother Magma column by Debbie Notkin, Karen Burnham's Dust Lanes column, four book reviews, and art work by Jean LeBlanc.
