Birth Order | Brooke Allen

December 11, 2017 by Rosamund

“You must be the oldest of your siblings,” people say when I’m being bossy and trying to schedule social events three months ahead of time. “You must be the middle child,” people say when I’m feeling melancholy and mopey and like no one really gets me. “You’re obviously the baby in your family,” people say when I’m acting silly or hedonistic or a little bit entitled. “Are you an only child?” I’ve been asked once or twice, when people see […]

Why I Don’t Use Arnica | Théodore Pavlich

November 9, 2017 by Rosamund

Théodore Pavlich is a Cleveland-based writer and theatre artist. He hopes to hear and tell as many stories as possible in his time on this earth, in addition to petting as many dogs as the limits of time, space, and introversion will allow. Most days, you can find him doing one of these three things at the various local coffee shops on the near west side. You can find his writing, fiber arts, and shameless self-promotion at http://www.theodorepavlich.com. If you […]

Gifts | Margaret Dunn

November 1, 2017 by Rosamund

I bought my mother a vibrator. It’s not what you think. I was 25, so fresh out of college I still had that new B.F.A smell clinging to my clothes. I had recently been dumped by the love-of-my-life-du-jour, a hippie who left me for a woman already four months pregnant with some other redneck’s kid. Classy. I had moved to Seattle to intern with the Seattle Repertory Theatre and found a whole new world of women — intellectual women, activist […]

The Crazy Scotsman | Ian Whippie

October 25, 2017 by Rosamund

Ian Whippie hails from the distant land of New Hampshire, which is famous for its trees and alcoholism (it’s all the alcoholic trees). He studied creative writing at Colby-Sawyer College with the ambition of writing fiction, but was told by his Memoir-Writing professor that he was a nonfiction writer, which he took in stride. With deep roots in Improv and College/Community theater and his recent relocation to the far and distant shores of Lake Erie he naturally became involved in […]

How I Got Arrested | Chloe Riley

October 11, 2017 by Rosamund

Chloe Riley is a journalist, skeptic, and bullshit fighter, depending on the day. She writes about death and old magazines in a blog called Pimp to the Mouthbreathers and she’s also written for The Guardian, the Chicago Reader and Huffington Post. She writes about criminal justice, politics, and theater, and she eats oatmeal even though it deeply pains her to do so.
