About LJ
LJ Moore pilots a pirate ship powered by rubber bands. She is interested in how we all balance the rational and the uncanny, the lyrical, humorous and pathological in our lives. She wants to hear your ghost stories.

Her poetry, essays, photography and reviews have appeared in Spectrum, Midnight Zoo, Danse Macabre, Coracle, 14850, 14 Hills, Limestone, Jacket, Kalliope, Transfer, Goetry, Sidebrow, Instant City 6, The Sidebrow Anthology, The Chiron Review and We Still Like, with work forthcoming in Rain Taxi.
