Puckerbrush turns 30!

My old high school English teacher, Sandy Phippen, has taken over the reigns of the Puckerbrush Review, which is my favorite Maine literary journal (and not just because some of my poetry has appeared in it.)

The Bangor Daily ran a nice story on the 30th Anniversary Issue. Here is my favorite paragraph:
Also early on appears a brief fiction by longtime Puckerbrush contributor Farnham Blair, “Important Message To Be Slipped Under The Driver’s Side Windshield Wiper Of Range Rovers, Especially Those Bearing A High Gloss And Vanity Plates,” the understated, gorgeously ironic kind of comment on life hereabouts for which one wishes Blair would get more attention.
Hear hear! Farnham Blair DOES deserve more attention. I adore his witty writing and love to read his short stories. This one in particular sounds right up my alley!

Happy 30th Birthday Puckerbrush! Keep up the good work.
