SPAMED! Can you ever forgive me? If so, please vote for me! I am in Round Two of The TRCoA Unsigned Artist Competition. Help me get to Round Three by clicking my face and voting for me! If I’m in the top 4 I get to play a showcase for record executives and could win 100 free hours in the studio. If I were selected, it would really help me rock some faces off, please take a second and vote.
Thanks! -Ted Hadji

The Smoking Poet Launches Winter 2008-09 Issue!
A great poem does things to you. Divine and nearly frightening things, like knotting up something inside you, or making your heart slip into an erratic beat, or catching your breath, or tremors, fevers, daydreams, sweats, inexplicable bliss.
Congratulations to the winners of TSP’s Annual Poetry Contest!
First Prize: “Northward” by Koh Xin Tian
Second Prize: “Sock Puppet” by Malcolm R. Campbell
Third Prize: “Reunion: 30 Years Too Late” by Lana Maht Wiggins
Honorable Mention: ”Selected Love Letters I’m Still Trying to Write” Kelli Russell Agondon
A special thank you to our honorary judge, poet Dorianne Laux.
Enjoy great poetry, fiction, non-fiction, book reviews, cigar reviews, and an interview with our feature artist, Sue Hughes. Watch for a new call for submissions, including our second short story contest.

The next time you switch on your computer, will the unseen be waiting to enter your mind or are they already there?
DI Sean Fagan investigates the ritual murder of young women and finds links between each victim and the world’s most popular computer game, Princess Kay-ling (PKL). When police high-tech units examine hard drives taken from the murder victims’ PCs, traces of subliminal psychotic induction (SPI) are found. This SPI induces victims to trust and obey characters from the PKL game. When a fourth woman is murdered in Ireland, Sean realises he hunts a serial killer capable of global influence. He also discovers the Government is aware and observing. When his own young daughters become involved, nightmare encircles him.

THE SMOKING POET SUMMER 2008 ISSUE
And they arrived, and kept arriving, story after story, one better than the next. We were amazed and cheered at the riches at our door. Our first annual short story contest brought us stories from all points of the globe: all corners of the United States, as well as Italy, France, China, Spain and many more. One author was 16 years old, yet his writing certainly did not bespeak his young years. Other authors had years of achievement pinned like medals to their chests—published novels, awards and prizes, publishing histories that blushed with authority. That was not our criteria of judgment, however. There was only one criterion: literary quality.
Come read winning entries by Grace Delobel, Martha Clarkson, Phil Haddock, and Paul Bowers. Also, feature author interviews with Lynn Stegner; YA author, Kate Buckley; artist-photographer, Ed Rode; fiction, non-fiction, poetry, cigar reviews, book reviews and much more. It’s our best yet and still getting better.

Life is growth. To stop growing is to stop living. The same principle applies to a literary ezine. It, too, is a living being, breathing new life with each and every submission that is chosen to appear in these pages. And surely this issue – our fourth – is breathing deeply! The voices here are many and diverse. Each one has given a breath of life to these pages, and we invite you to witness that life, allow it to move you, make you think and feel and perhaps do a bit of growing, too.
