Stoneboat literary journal has been publishing exceptional poetry, fiction, memoir, creative nonfiction, and b&w art since 2010. Based out of Sheboygan, Wisconsin, Stoneboat features many Wisconsin writers alongside writers from throughout the United States and around the globe. We're an eclectic journal -- our only publishing criteria is that the work has to be good. In addition to poetry, fiction, and creative nonfiction, Stoneboat 4.2 includes an interview with best-selling Art of Fielding author Chad Harbach and a review of Sandra Kleven's Defiance Street: Poems and other writing.

Each of the persona poems in this collection is written in the voice of a historical figure, contemporary cultural icon, or well-known literary character. The poems are written in the lipogram form, a constraint in which certain letters of the alphabet are deliberately omitted from the work. In Impersonations, Zimmermann has limited himself to the letters contained in the name of each persona; for instance, the poem "Sigmund Freud" uses only the letters s, i, g, m, u, n, d, f, r, and e. Zimmermann has worked wonders with these severe limitations, producing poems that are lyrical, witty, and smart.

"Erik Richardson is a modern mythmaker. From his cauldron of history, science, philosophy, and mathematics bubble lives we'd forgotten we've lived, or those we thought-until now-were impossible. a berserker stuck in traffic asks us to recall the wilderness, wonder, and even violence of our collective past and return to it in our times, chained to cubicles though we may be. Richardson's poems remind us of our latent powers, and offer the hope that one day we will tell stories where we are not workaday dullards, but demigods." --B.J. Best, author of But Our Princess Is in Another Castle "Readers, buckle up the DeLorean! a berserker stuck in traffic is a joyride to the past and back again. It's a terrifically constructed balancing act of history vs. present day, math teacher vs. kung fu master, everyman vs. his own ghosts. The male characters are funny, insightful and oh-so-slightly flawed; the women are reverently framed as centrifugal force. This first book of poems is intelligent, insightful, word-wicked, a one-sitting wonder." --Cathryn Cofell, author of Sister Satellite Readers, buckle up the DeLorean! a berserker stuck in traffic is a joyride to the past and back again. It's a terrifically constructed balancing act of history vs. present day, math teacher vs. kung fu master, everyman vs. his own ghosts. The male characters are funny, insightful and oh-so-slightly flawed; the women are reverently framed as centrifugal force. This first book of poems is intelligent, insightful, word-wicked, a one-sitting wonder. Cathryn Cofell I envy and rejoice in Erik Richardson's range of voice. His poetic scope encompasses berserker, 3rd grade teacher, husband and father, mathematician, and student of both the suburban and pastoral worlds...though my favorite's the kid who scrutinized Kung Fu Theater each week for clues to save his family, and the world...clues that come to some fruition in these poems. Michael Kriesel, President, Wisconsin Fellowship of Poets

Marilyn Zelke-Windau writes of the ordinary in a highly extraordinary way in her debut collection of free verse poetry. She experiments with language, imagery, texture, and narrative in in each of the book's five sections, delivering poems that are both powerful and unexpected. Nineteen poems are illustrated with pen and ink drawing by the poet herself, making this unique collection stand out. 2009-2010 Wisconsin Poet Laureate Marilyn L. Taylor says, "Momentary Ordinary is a splendid book, primarily because Marilyn Zelke-Windau is one of those rare poets with the ability to convey images of the everyday in exceptionally high relief. Among the fine poems collected here, one describes a vast landscape as a kaleidoscope of dark tree lines, feather-edged foliage, while another zooms in on a pudgy dog with cork-short legs. With this kind of crisp precision, along with a bracing lack of sentimentality, each of the book's five sections offers a provocative take on the real world. Don't miss this one."
