BEHIND THE COVER Every so often we fall down rabbit holes on the internet, mine often include old movies and creepy stuff I shouldn’t be reading before bed. We all have our things. I found the movie Creature from the Black Lagoon that way. More importantly, I discovered that many of the water scenes in that movie were filmed near Palatka, just a short drive from here. When reading Tim Gilmore’s story last month, it was clear to me that now would be the time to not only pay homage to a local film, but to have some fun in the process. Our cover is an updated riff on the original movie poster! A big double woo-hoo to Nicole Peacock for illustrating the cover. Don’t be scared, they don’t bite.
