R. Nemo Hill is getting old, but he isn’t tired yet. He has a lot of published work behind him: a novel, a book-length poem based upon a story by H.P Lovecraft, and five books published by Dos Madres Press: four of poetry, as well as a book of excerpts from his Southeast Asian travel diaries. He is also editor and publisher of EXOT BOOKS, a sporadic small press. Almost a decade ago, he fled his longtime nest in NYC’s East Village for a rambling old stone farmhouse in the Catskill Mountains, in the hamlet of Halcott Center. He and his husband make a meager living as indigo-dyers, selling their wares at crafts shows.
Shanekia McIntosh is an interdisciplinary artist rooted in poetry, performance, and installation. In 2021, she released her debut chapbook, Spiral as Ritual, published by Topos Press. Her first full-length poetry collection, A New Sense of Luxury, was released by Eureka! Press in April 2025.
Slink G Moss was raised in Chicago, moved to New York City and Hudson, and currently is Poet Laureate of The Copake Poetry Society. Slink is an artist, songwriter and performer known internationally for his ghost cowboy act with the Slink Moss Explosion.
