The riverfront always drew people to Stillwater. The Ojibwe and Dakota first settled here, later striking a treaty with Europeans, who quickly realized the St. Croix River s potential as an ideal way to move lumber. One of the first to float logs down the river was Captain Stephen Hanks, cousin to Abraham Lincoln. The lumber business gave birth to Minnesota s first millionaire as the city grew, and Stillwater received one of the state s first Carnegie grants for a free public library. Meanwhile, the state prison saw notorious gangster Cole Younger found the Prison Mirror in 1887, now the nation s oldest continuously operated offender newspaper. Authors Holly Day and Sherman Wick celebrate the history and charm of one of Minnesota s finest cities, from the frontier to today."

Like a bomb that only goes off slowly over the course of decades, Ugly Girl by Holly Day is a litany of the damages done to self and others caught within the blast radius, the faceless ones who set the charge but are somehow never fully held accountable for it. It is no sudden explosion, but one that takes years to notice; as she says in Unwinding: I know time has passed because my reflection has been replaced by the face of a stranger. The speaker in the poems is never the one "they" think she is, or the one they want her to be. Despite this disconnection, there is an undaunted strength that bursts through the layers of subjugation: There are only so many people I can be for you and I have to be myself now. -From "This isn't love" Ugly Girl is a must read for woman and man alike; it's honesty and willingness to engage the reader with its perceptiveness and inclusivity will relate to all on a human level.

What began as the boom site for the mid-nineteenth-century Upper Midwest lumber industry quickly grew into the town of St. Anthony. In 1872, St. Anthony was annexed by its neighbor, Minneapolis, but the area retained its identity as Northeast Minneapolis, or "Nordeast" to future residents. Northeast was an industrial hub that attracted immigrant labor from Eastern Europe and beyond. Because of its diverse labor and cultural institutions and communities, it grew and prospered despite the challenges presented by Prohibition, the Great Depression and World War II. Today, Nordeast embraces its status as a neighborhood where art galleries, independent theaters, live music venues, world-class ethnic restaurants, taprooms and historic churches all exist within mere blocks of one another.

"The Mission" is a poetry book based on the May through August 2012 issues (and occasional Internet chapbook releases) of cc&d magazine (byline: "the UNreligious, NON-family oriented literary and at magazine", founded 1993, http: //scars.tv/ccd) into this poetry and prose (and very occasionally artwork), published by Scars Publications. "The Mission" was also released not only as an "issues edition" (of the majority of the writings appearing in issues) and a "chapbooks edition" (of the chapbook releases during this period, plus select bonus writings from the issues). This chapbooks edition of "the Mission" contains not only material that was used in performance art shows in Chicago during the May-August 2012 period, but also chapbooks that were even released into 6"x9" ISBN# paperback BOOKS, plus select additions from some of the issues of cc&d magazine. The cover art of this collection book was photographed in Chicago in 2011 (and the color was changed for different editions).
