Magazines
DARKLING MMVI--The inaugural issue of Darkling Publications' flagship, with such poets as John Grey, Simon Perchik, Krikor N. Der Hohannesian, Cathy Porter, and Stephanie Kemp, among others. DARKLING was able to premier the publication of "Fantasie D'antan" by Clark Ashton Smith in our Beyond The Grave memorial, and Robert Cooperman was named DARKLING's first Featured Poet.

DARKLING MMVII--Continuing into the dark room of poetry, led by poets such as Vivian Bolland Schroeder, Barry Ballard, A.D. Winans, Holly Day, and Don Momosaki among others. Consulting Editor Joseph M. Ditta offered a fitting treatise on Poe in our Beyond The Grave memorial, and modern-gothic poet Kenneth DiMaggio was crowned our Featured Poet. We also highlighted the graphic arts with Featured Artist Melanie Monterey's evocative photography.

DARKLING MMVIII--The last of the initial Black Book Triad of DARKLING, this journal counted David Stone, Llyn Clague, Holly Cross, Fred Yannantuono, Bruce Roseland, and Jodi Jones among its talented pool of other poets. The multi-talented Donna Emerson held our Featured Artist diadem, offering samplings of poetry and photography, while Susanna Rich was raised as our Featured Poet for the year. With women artists highlighting the journal, it was fitting to honor the tragic and lovely Sylvia Plath in our Beyond The Grave memorial.

DARKLING MMIX--The white journal, but no less dark than the first three Black Books, offered work from such poets as Aden Ross, Sheri L. Wright, Ivor C. Treby, Stephen Maurer, and others. Our Featured Poet, Arthur Gottlieb, had been with us in every edition so far, and Publisher Daniel G. Snethen's tribute to Lola Ridge in our Beyond The Grave memorial introduced many to an important anarchist poet from the early 20th Century.

DARKLING MMX--Five years highlighted in red; even our Darkling Beetle sigil bore a celebratory red 5. A litany of poets, familiar and new, including Pamela Davis, Charlotte F. Otten, Jene Erick Beardsley, Kenneth DiMaggio, Brock Marie Moore, and Robert Cooperman blessed our pages. Our friend and guest contributing editor John Howard Wilson offered a tribute to Lord Byron that the Baron himself would have found insightful and noteworthy in our Beyond The Grave memorial, and Ihanktowan poet Mabel Picotte graced us as the year's Featured Poet.


Chapbooks
The Mass In Red, by James C. Van Oort--The inaugural chapbook by Darkling Publications, featuring Editor-In-Chief James C. Van Oort. Containing a series of poems illustrating man's cathartic journey assembled in the form of the Christian Mass. Poet Triton Stillwater says: �The Mass In Red is a powerfully spiritual read rife with confusion, hope, darkness and light, culminating in startling desolation�a most frightening read.�

Undiscovered Country, by Vickie Christensen--The First Annual Darkling Publications Chapbook Contest winner. Christensen, from Idaho, plumbs those daily elements of life that can become dark as 3 a.m. in this startling collection that takes readers to the very edge of life and death in its masterful verses. A collection that proves darkness thrives in the most unexpected of moments. This is not a happy book, and we're happy to have Vickie in our midst.

Recollections of an Old Curiosity Shop, by David S. Powell--The third chapbook from Darkling Publications, though not poetry and not part of a contest. This curious little book illustrates the childhood memories of David Powell's visit to a haunt beloved of many people, Seattle's Ye Olde Curiosity Shoppe. Powell, of Aberdeen, South Dakota, undertook this narrative as a tale to tell his grandchildren. Darkling Publications is happy to make it available to the rest of the world seeking various and sundry curiosities--and if you visit Seattle, visit the shop that inspired it.
