Literary LEO is here again.This year, our entries seemed to really focus on what makes us human. The categories are Poems, Short Fiction, and Photography, both Black & White and Color. Cartoons had a particularly weak year and there were no cartoons we could choose as winners. The stories span experiences, settings, and tone, but they all share something that we’re all looking for: a way to connect to our experiences. We look for meaning, feeling, and understanding in so many places, and one of the ways literature helps us is by putting that experience into words and giving our humanity form. The writers in this year’s Literary LEO have beautifully captured the air of humanness and we are proud to share this with our readers. For next year, Louisville has an amazing number of cartoon, webtoon, and comics creators that we’d love to see in this category. We want more of you next year.

However, when not nomming on trash, he’s bringing the low end to some truly sick Sabbath-esque riffs as the bassist of Long Island, NY stoner metal/doom band Restless Spirit, who are wrapping up their quick five-day tour with fellow stoner/doom band Temple of the Fuzz Witch, (Detroit, MI), right here in Louisville. Sharing the stage, (and most likely the bong), are two of the area’s finest doom metal bands: Faerie Ring (Evansville, IN), and Crop, (Lexington, KY).Check out the Short Fiction Winners Here! adobe
