   That's right kids, UNLIKELY STORIES, at http://go.to/unlikely, is
   now publishing again! As if you didn't get enough of it the first
   time!

   From summer of '98 to the summer of 2000, Unlikely Stories brutally
   irritated its readers with monthly tomes of the offbeat, weird, and
   creepy in contemporary literature. After a horrible accident with an
   electric rice-picker and a black-and-white TV, it looked like the
   journal was at its end, but lo! Resurrection!

   This month, Unlikely Stories has fiction from B. Z. Niditch, Elisha
   Porat, Nicholas Morgan, Bryan Nally, Dino Parenti, Derick Varn, Bill
   Berry, and Sam Vaknin....

   And poetry from C. J. Sage, J. Peter Mishler, Sam Vaknin, Elisha
   Porat, Ward Kelley, J. Watters, John Sweet, Michelle Maihiot,
   Christopher Mulrooney, L. B. Sedlacek, Roberta McQueen, Alex
   Migliore, Alec Kowalczyk, J. Kevin Wolfe, Donald Ryburn, Duane
   Locke, Jonathan Penton, Ruth Latta, Holly Day, Michael B. Zack,
   Nora Peevy, Jamie Cavanagh, Maree Jaeger, Andrey Kneller,
   and Steve Youmans.

   So put that back in your nose and come on down! We've got something
   for everyone, and if we don't have anything for you, you'd better
   pretend that we do, or you'll feel all alone!
