From John Berbrich

The man behind BoneWorld Publishing, MuscleHead Press, and Barbaric Yawp journal writes up The Lineup #2 in the January 2011 issue of his From The Marrow newsletter:

I have a back issue here from 2009, but The Lineup is still going strong. What a nice little magazine, 36 pages, glossy cover, filled w/ poems on crime. Includes poetry by Patrick Carrington, Jennifer Knox, Deshant Paul, Carol Novack, & my favorite, Janis Butler Holm. Google poemsoncrime & you'll find the website for info on purchasing and submissions. Edited by Gerald So w/ help from a few others. Fights, thievery, gunshots, beatings. No ethereal wisps of airy nothingness here.

The Lineup 2 Reviewed in Mystery Scene

Mystery Scene Magazine's small press columnist Betty Webb reviews The Lineup 2 on page 58 of the Holiday 2009 Issue (No. 112). She highlights poems by Jennifer L. Knox, Christopher Watkins, Patrick Carrington, and Carol Novack, and goes on to write, "a collection like this matters tremendously, especially to those learning the writer's craft."

Thank you, Betty.
