Hanging Moss Journal

Welcome to Hanging Moss Journal!

We have created Hanging Moss Journal for the shameful promotion of our creative works. However, being aware that too much of a good thing is not always good, we will publish a few guest poets every 4-6 weeks. There is no particular theme here, no hidden agenda. Our hope is that this will be a spot where you can stop in from time to time and read something that gives you a smile or allows you a minute of quiet reflection. Or maybe something in one of our photographs will let you see the world a little differently. That is how it is for us when we sit under the old oaks and watch the world through all the swaying moss.
