If you’re anywhere nearby, pop on in for my first-ever Santa Fe area event!

There will be readings and typewriters and poetic fun from a couple of fellow poets — and of course I’m bringing the DrunkSkull Sidewalk Cinema to show off some project-specific multimedia and celebrates just a little of what I adore about the small press! I’ll also have copies of at least a few books — and I’m happy to scribble a little something in it if you’d like!

And the space itself is filled with local art of all kinds, with a particular focus on recycled artwork — inventive reconfigurations of things abandoned or ignored — made new and gorgeous once more! If you’re after something unique and one-of-a-kind, well you’d be hard-pressed to find a better spot to shop! Here’s to hoping you pop in for something a little different in the City Different!

Psalms From The Badlands Review by Allyson Whipple

Psalms From The Badlands Review by Allyson Whipple

Things are heating up!

I’m in the homestretch of making books; events and interviews are happening soon; and the book itself is already enjoying some nice, warm light!

Don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what Allyson Whipple] had to say! Allyson sees loads of haiku and short form as part of Frogpond, so — hey — that makes this review, and the time she took to write it, feel really special. I think this book might end up surprising folks…including me!

Over at THE DEWDROP, they’ve been nice enough to feature a micro-gallery of some of the Psalms art and let me pontificate about the process a bit. So if you’re curious about the how and the why of the forthcoming Psalms From The Badlands, pop on over and give it a quick read!

I’m still making the books, in particular trying to figure out how to make some decent linocuts…so I don’t have any fancy finished pictures to share…but here’s a glimpse at the special edition — to wet the proverbial whistle! As ever, watch for my newsletter/mailing list for the pre-sale announcement.
