At long, long last, we are pleased to announce we released the Issue 17 of Sinking City on December 30th! Thank you all so much for your labor, your trust, and your words- all of which have nourished us here in our sinking city. We’ve had to navigate a plethora of bureaucratic and I.T. related obstacles, but we have surmounted them all. Over the course of taking over the magazine, I’ve found myself repeating the phrase,

“The price of community is inconvenience.”

And in Florida we skip rope with inconvenience.

Congratulations to Sinking City for being listed as an award-winning resource for writers and artists.
