TYPO 12 is now available from Black Scat Books! For this one, I contributed a short story (“The Flotation Device”), a “Reader Survey” for an imaginary novel, and a “Lipogrammatic Crossword”–a crossword puzzle shaped like the letter E, in which that letter is excluded from all the words and clues.
My extraordinary colleagues in this issue are Robert Archambeau, Corina Bardoff, Terry Bradford, Igor Bulatovsky, Paul Busson, Apollo Camembert, Norman Conquest, Albert Cossery, Noël Devaulx, Rachel Galvin, Jean-Luc Gameau, Shawn Garrett, Edward Gauvin, Julien Gracq, Pierre Autin-Grenier, Rick Henry, Esteban Isnardi, Julia Lillard, Joshua Martin, George MacLennan, Dmitri Manin, Paul Nougé, Thomas Owen, Angelo Pastormerlo, Alejandro Albarrán Polanco, Bernard Quiriny, Adam Ranđelović, Simon Read, Lono Taggers, Mark Valentine, Tim Walker, Gregory Wallace, Alyson Waters, Andrew Wenaus, Tom Whalen, and Bill Wolak. As usual, the whole thing is edited and designed by Norman Conquest.
