CrayfishMag is a new online journal & print experiment in creative writing & visual Art. We celebrate the vital exchange between our most difficult and joyful experiences — between the familiar and the strange.
On our FUTURES theme, Felicia Zamora says, “Extreme volatility overshadows the present. Social, climate and economic horrors compound daily on global, national, state, and community levels daily. Yet our species and the more-than-human world persist. We love and flourish despite.”
