“I had the great fortune to cross paths with John Madera through the venerable JMWW literary magazine, where we were both staff. When CCM published Addicts & Basements, John agreed to take me on as one of his first clients at Rhizomatic. I was relieved. John has an extensive reach, and my book’s success is due, largely, to his professional, creative, outstanding ethics and dedication. He also became an even closer friend. For all of this, and more, I remain profoundly grateful.”
