Introducing a new chapbook, Lurking Exposure, by Sarah Ahmad.

Her work has appeared in various e-zines and magazines and that gives her a warm, fuzzy feeling inside. Her chapbooks are Unfulfilled Doubts (2010) from Artistically Declined Press and Chaotic Disillusion (2010) from Calliope Nerve Media.

Working on a doctorate (or, working on not being further impoverished and/or disassociated by said pursuit) has not dislodged from him the guilty pleasures of Ian Fleming, bella musica Wien, and Britain’s Hammer Films. His favorite poets are Hughes, Szymborska, and Mozart. Particularly, he aspires to follow on the imaginative trail blazed by the feuilleton of Joseph Roth.
