Did you know that in eight years of Vermin on the Mount we've had 48 shows featuring nearly 200 writers and artists?

It's true. The Vermin poster gallery has been updated with all the latest posters so you can take a walk down memory lane. I've also updated the Legion of Vermin list to the left. If you've participated in a Vermin event and don't see your name on the list or want to update your link, shoot me an email.

The lineup for show #49 next month has been finalized and I'll be making that announcement on Monday.

Don't be bitten!
