**Peter Baltensperger's Whispers was published in the Summer 2012 issue of Siren

Peter Baltensperger, whose Nocturnal Tableaux will grace this site in January 2013, has had another story published: Whispers.

Whispers, an entrancing erotic fever-dream of sorts, appears in the first issue of Siren, with other works worth noting, like Shanna Germain's warm, sweetly kink-ish F**k Knot (poem) and Vincent Francone's engaging Poem.

Review: The Jewel in The Moment, by Richard Cody

I reviewed Richard Cody's wonderful "haikuish" anthology The Jewel in The Moment on the Reading & Writing By Pub Light site.

Cody published two spooky stories on this site, as well: Alice and Lisa.

Cody, also the author of the horror anthology Darker Corners and the poetry anthology This is Not My Heart, is a writer whose work is worth reading - and owning.

**Basil Rosa has had three poems published in the Spring-Fall 2012 issue of Umbrella magazine

Basil Rosa, whose He held on and she kept saying time to go graced this site last October, has had three more poems published: Anomia Simplex, Crepiduia Fornicata and Mytilus Edulis, on the Umbrella site.

These poems, which make wonderfully restrained use of color, imagery, nature and emotion, achieve an effect/level most poets - including myself - can only hope for.

**One of my older stories, Stigmatic, was republished on the Every Night Erotica site

One of my older, briefly sexplicit and Christ-friendly stories, Stigmatic, was republished on the Every Night Erotica site. (It was originally published on the widegrrl.net site in June 2002.)

It should be noted that while the story is Christ-friendly, it isn't religion-friendly - an important distinction to make, considering it would probably offend many "Christians" with its universal outlook.

Check this story out, if you're of legal age (18), and non-dogmatic!
