August is supposed to be the last days of summer, and I don’t know about y’all but this year it feels as though we didn’t even have a summer. The days are so blurred together now it doesn’t even feel like August to me. The subtle changes are the only ways I can really tell. Each sunrise comes a little later. The nights are getting cooler. Sharks begin swimming on the television screen. You know, shit like that. But life goes on and I’m more of a cold-weather kind of guy anyway. So let us raise a toast to winter months to come, and hope that 2020 doesn’t have acid snow or some other crazy form of apocalyptic madness like it’s been throwing at us all year. Hopefully, Lady Luck will deal us a good card…Cheers!
As usual, you’ll find this month’s featured writers below. And we’re always open for submissions, so if you’d like you can send 1-3 poems to cajunmuttpress@gmail.com along with a bio and author photo. I’m currently filling spots for November. Also, keep your eyes peeled for a new book release toward the end of the month. You can also find July’s release, Written in Darkness, in the shop section of our Facebook page.
