So here I am…

This itch, this repeating idea that wouldn’t be ignored, is evolving.  Can you imagine an online magazine where you discover and and celebrate the creative voices of Marion, Massachusetts? This itch deserves attention.

Today, you’ll only find a few scratches. In six months, this web site will debut its first issue – “Beginnings.” 

If you’ve got a creative itch, whether it be occasional or chronic, please consider contributing your verse, images or video to Sippizine.

Let’s scratch that itch together.
