ISSUE 9 PART 2

ISSUE #9 part 2

Editors note: 

This was originally special issue #3 but then i thought "it is not that special". Because it is exactly the same as any other issue of BNW except it consists of works of past contributors. At least Autumn Special was huge and Disappointing Second One had an unifying idea. Because of that this one is kinda not exactly issue #10 but not really issue #9 and definitely not Special Issue #3.

Ladies and gentlemen, for your consideration - Issue #9 part 2.

1. Jesse Glass - Nautical Novel
2. Valeri Scherstjanoi - Mixed Sheet
3. Michael Kostiuk - Asemic Short Story: An Overwrite in Black & White
4. Peter Carlaftes - OCCUPY AUDIENCE 
5. Sean Gallagher - Three Textures
6. Phillip-Texas Fontanella / John M. Bennett - 11 pieces

ISSUE 2

ISSUE #2

Editors note:
#1 was really a mess (albeit a fascinating and incredibly promising, but it was all over the place). But it wasn't a bad thing. I thought it would be good to let Brave New Word to grow naturally for some time without pretending that i'm a good editor (because i'm not).

Some say that putting the sophomore issue is a harder task than doing the first one. It wasn't like that for me this time. The turnaround for #2 was just somewhere around a month and it was quickly packed with lots of great stuff. Look at the line-up: you can see the works of great Erica Baum and awesome Agam Andreas; marvelous poems by Michael Dec, L. G. Corey, Patrick Hartigan and Lauri Hei; super collages from Hiromi Suzuki and J4; enchanting visual poetry from Matron Koppany, Jozsef Biro, Vsevolod Vlaskine and Sacha Archer.
