OBSIDIAN MOON
a black dog press production
Obsidian Moon was born on a hot, wine filled summer night in 1995 in howard house, on wood st., at bates college, in lewiston, maine.
The first issue was put together on an old mac, with a pirated copy of pagemaker. nods to the crazy russian for that. The issue, full of great poetry and prose, never made it out. Here, after long sleep, it will be reborn - and live again. Hopefully online as well as in print.
Stay tuned for more!
