Blood & Bourbon - Fall 2017

by Phil Halton, Matt Lennox (Editor), Raya P. Morrison (Editor)

Blood & Bourbon is a fiercely independent journal run by storytellers, for storytellers. We’re here to celebrate all things hard, gritty, and raw. True or not-so-true, all we care about is a good story. The kind you tell over too many drinks, too late on a worknight, too far down the street on the other side of town.
