Think of us like a cassette label. Think of us like a scrap of paper at the end of the world with a few words, either beautiful or ugly, you pick. Think of us like an angry response sent into the void in reply to a political fundraising email. Think of us like receiving a transmission from outerspace but it's just an alien's coffee order. We want to publish the pieces you are either too scared to send somewhere else or somewhere else is too scared to publish. We want your best and we want your worst but most of all we want to be devastated, whatever that might mean.
