Issue 33
We think this issue is about feedback, but we’d love to hear your thoughts. The five of us welcome you to Pidgin 33. Our trek here was dotted with long discussions in N-107 about entries, en-dashes, and entanglements. We didn’t have a theme to start, but as we read through and selected submissions, we began to think about feedback. It’s not really a theme; it’s a process. Venturing with us to grow their pieces, the contributors know it well. And now you arrive, the next voyager on issue 33. Take it on, and let us know your take on it. Until then...
You are here. Your roadmap, the table of contents, is on the cover. On the next page are the people who will join you. Some you’ll meet many times over as they traverse with you—like Cynthia Davidson, whose redlines appear on short writings about memories. We’ve preserved them for you to learn from too. You’ll also catch traces of Whataburger wrappers as you cruise through the essays and experiences that constitute this issue. You’ll approach value. You’ll encounter dystopias of your own creation. You’ll idle at the border. You’ll remember kites in the backyard. Halfway, you’ll meet Hood Century at a halfway point of their own. Toward the end, we’ve compiled all the bibliographies. You’re always welcome to leave notes in the margins, but we’ve left space for you to enter your feedback at the end of the issue.
Pidgin does not condone any abuse of pigeons.
Issue 33 features words, drawings, and images by Leti Ryder, Maria Gabriela Carucci, April Dong, Christopher Loofs, Jono Coles, Mason Petros Magemeneas, Andy Bako, Hampus Thysell, Madeline Kim, Fernando Garrido Carreras, Jerald Cooper, Eli Hockett, Aidan Quigley, Audrey Tseng de Melo Fischer, Samantha Ong, Maya Freeman, Andrew King, and Adrienne Economos-Miller.
