It's an honor and pleasure to have the opportunity to publish these excellent poems, which are especially dear to me since I've lived most of my life in Elyria. Thank you, Alex!

P.S. I'll post ordering information and an excerpt from the book on the Crisis Chronicles site in the next day or so. Friday the 9th is the semi-official release date.
