'Snowing Fireflies' Cover / A New Issue of elimae

Here is the cover for my forthcoming chapbook, Snowing Fireflies, designed and painted by Folded Word Press editor, Jessi Graustein (big thanks, Jessi, I love it…):



Also, Casey Murphy wrote an article which appears today at Folded Word’s blog based on an interview she conducted with me about Snowing Fireflies (big thanks, Casey...).

Here's a blurb from Shane Jones (big thanks again, Shane...) about the chapbook:

"A quaint and mysterious little collection that balances the unreal and real. Eric Beeny writes with a child-like wonder, resulting in powerful surreal images, and a yearning for human connection. It's a satisfying balancing act that I enjoyed immensely. I'm looking forward to the next thing Eric Beeny does."

Shane Jones, author of Light Boxes

Also, the May issue of elimae, or eli-May, is live from Malta (be safe, Coop...), and it includes an excerpt from an unpublished novella, The Quarantine Ceremony (big thanks again, Kim). Also in this issue are wonderful pieces by Kirsty Logan, Howie Good, Michelle Reale, Peter Grandbois, Diya Chaudhuri, J. Michael Wahlgren, Dean Marshall Tuck, Stacey Tran, Damian Dressick, and others...

Congratulations, Eric. The cover looks great. I can't wait to read.

YOUR FONT IS SMALL NOW ...

Eric Beeny said...

Thanks, Ethel. My font and I both wanted to be little kids again, and my font, unfortunately, won the coin toss...
