Supermachine is ending

Supermachine wants to formally announce that it will be ending after this Fall 2011 season. It has been a very successful run of journals, events, chapbooks and parties. Please come out to celebrate the release of Genya Turovskaya's DEAR JENNY on November 11, and the release of our last issue on November 16. For details visit our "readings" page. 

Supermachine is proud to have been able to support what we believe is the most interesting, exciting and and aesthetically relevant writing in contemporary poetry and art, including the 21 writers being published in our forthcoming issue. We couldn't be more excited for that, and we hope you will share our joy. Come throw down with us one last time.
