<p>In the depths, half-hidden under still waters, await strange and vicious creatures .... Cthulhu, Godzilla and nagas mingle in Demonstra, a speculative poem collection which assembles 20 years of work by Bryan Thao Worra. Demonstra is a book of things glimpsed out of the corner of the eye. It is about a reality that can never fully be demonstrated, authenticated, dissected, for certain visions always remain in shadows. Bryan Thao Worra is the first Laotian American to receive a Fellowship in Literature from the United States Government's National Endowment for the Arts. He received the Asian Pacific Leadership Award from the State Council on Asian Pacific Minnesotans for Leadership in the Arts in 2009. His previous books include On The Other Side Of The Eye and Touching Detonations. He was a Cultural Olympian during the 2012 London Summer Games representing Laos. He's a professional member of the Horror Writer Association and a regular contributor to Innsmouth Magazine.</p>

<p>Tired of the same old fairies? You know, the ones with butterfly wings who sit on toad stools staring wistfully at something in the distance. The ephemeral sprites of pop culture who flit about giggling and maybe get into a bit of good natured mischief. Have you had enough pixie dust, but you still feel an inexplicable, primal sensation when walking through an autumnal forest, sitting by a gurgling stream, or staring at the intricate bark of a tree? If so, The Subverted Fairy Project has what you're looking for. We start with a colloquial word about nature to give our fairies a name. An artist renders that fairy any way they see fit. A writer then writes the fairy's story, as a poem or piece of flash fiction. Our fairies are unbound by tradition. Unbound by expectation. Rooted in nature and made alive by organic collaboration, these are the fairies you've been seeking. Fairies like you've never imagined them.</p>
