Artwork “YOU’RE THE DREAM” by Robert O’Banner: An illustration of a person with long hair and a beard, in frame from the shoulders up. They have their mouth open as if speaking or yelling, and a hand obscuring the top of their face. A horn like that of a unicorn is growing from their forehead. In the background, abstracted flower patterns bloom across the page in bright colors. YOU’RE THE DREAM by Robert O’Banner INSTAGRAM @badlydrawnflower

Cover illustration from THE YELLING CONTINUES above the contributor feature. ALLCATS by Martha Hipley WEBSITE: marthahipley.com He picks up the phone. “It’s urgent!” says the president. “Your country needs you!” The president, like most world leaders, believes that the spy is one of his citizens. Every country wants to believe that someone so handsome and clever and strong is one of their own. The spy only believes in money. The spy is from nowhere.

Listen to the crackling of static as you traverse the poem "CTRL+SHIFT+U" by Robert Beveridge.

THE YELLING CONTINUES Anthology: pwritersu.com/TYC
About the author: xterminal.bandcamp.com
Cover illustration from THE YELLING CONTINUES above the contributor feature. CTRL+SHIFT+U by Robert Beveridge WEBSITE: xterminal.bandcamp.com There is static, of course. There is always static. You can measure signal-to-noise ratios on fiber optics all you want; most of us barely manage copper, and that’s on a good day. Never mind the opportunists who are trying to sneak in, steal that wire, sell it so they can afford to trick out their pickups, roll coal down the alleys of your brain.

"IS THAT A FLY? MOSQUITO? WHERE DID IT GO? WHERE IS THE FLY SWATTER?" by Brytton Bjorngaard brings to mind the incessant buzzing of summer.

THE YELLING CONTINUES Anthology: pwritersu.com/TYC
#art #anthology
Artwork “IS THAT A FLY? MOSQUITO? WHERE DID IT GO? WHERE IS THE FLY SWATTER?” by Brytton Bjorngaard. Colorful multimedia letterpress art with letters and numbers on a semi-opaque ink background. To the left is a column of bright calligraphic text reading “Whoooooooooosh / Whoooooooooossssh / Whoooooooooosh”. "Everyday objects earworm into my obsessive mind: the bass of my neighbor's television, the turning of the clock handles at the back of the classroom, the sound of the train on the tracks over 2 miles away, the low rumble of cars at the stoplight..." - Brytton Bjorngaard

The homogenisation and consolidation of buisinesses and brands has led to the erosion of the midlist, the indie movie or band or comic. There's a real sense of "I'll only try media that's already popular / famous," and I'm begging you to look for the weird shit, the experimental, the niche.

Full of biting meaning (and metaphorical noise), an excerpt from "RAKSHASA" by K. Sundaram.

THE YELLING CONTINUES Anthology: pwritersu.com/TYC
#poetry #anthology
Cover illustration from THE YELLING CONTINUES above the contributor feature. RAKSHASA by K. Sundaram A vitreous fluid living between the heartbeats of a dying virus, the kind of thing that breaches a bruised topaz cave, a glossed lip. Roadkill and waning headlight become twin copper vessels, each responsible for the burying of the other. Meaning, for once, this creature will play destroyer.

Since many of us are cancelling streaming services, now might also be a good time to support writers and artists. Times are extremely tough for creatives, so why not buy a book, commission an art piece, sign up for a Patreon, tip your favorite creators. Everything helps.
