| Here's the short and skinny: we started in 2006 making mailers, that is collections of poetry on printed whatnots like over-sized postcards, leaflets and things. tied them all together in the prettiest little package possible while keeping it inexpensive and neato. we like the poetry hard. the look, not so much. kept on going with new and groovoid things like matchbook poems and handmade chaps much as we could money providing. now it's 2008 and we have some of our best work on our shelves. things we never imagined in the beginning. and that's exactly what we hoped for. |
| Here's what we Intend to do Next: 3 Mailers per Year 3 Additions to the Interview Series to go with 1 Exposure Book (no, it's not naughty like that) 2 Chapbooks ................................ Go Serial-- 4 online issues /yr 2 print issues - best of misc. |
