SOMETHING RANDOM AND BEAUTIFUL

SOMETHING RANDOM AND BEAUTIFUL

At long last we’ve got a QUICK SEARCH feature to CLICK THROUGH some of the website’s highlights.

The website has really grown over the years, and that can make navigating a chore! The braintrust here at the HQ thought we should do something about that!

It’s hopefully helpful for those new to these parts, curious to see what we’ve been getting up to! It’s also intended to help old friends just looking to quickly discover things they might’ve missed! For you deep seekers, there are still secret little corners to discover — but this should make it easy to get a sense of some of the fun stuff through the years.

A link to it also lives in the footer below, for quick and easy access.

NM Book Award Honorees @ Drift Exchange

NM Book Award Honorees @ Drift Exchange

The New Mexico Book Awards and Drift Exchange cordially invite you to join them and a grip of recent winners and finalists for an event celebrating some of the best local books!

For over 2 decades, the competition has, in the words of Paul Rhetts, sought “to uncover and honor the best in New Mexico books.” and this shindig aims to do just that! Peruse the honorees’ work and what you’ll instantly discover is the breadth of talents and voices across scores of genres right in our own backyard! And it’s yet another in Drift Exchange’s passionate curation and deep commitment to create a “platform for artists, musicians, and cultural workers in New Mexico” in their gorgeous upstairs space overlooking Central Avenue — the Mother Road herself, Route 66.

DrunkSkull will be there with Psalms From The Badlands (our finalist in poetry last year), the DrunkSkull Sidewalk Cinema, and running a little giveaway for attendees — so come on by, check out the scene, and get yourself entered for a chance to win some books and whatnot!

The “Knife Game” T-Shirts are slowly making their way out into the world!

Yes, streets from Ireland to North Carolina to Albuquerque to California are now blessed with the 2nd Annual Official DrunkSkull Books T-Shirt! X E Oaks’ badass artwork (celebrating both the moxie and misanthropy we like to embody here at the HQ) is likely stumbling through the back alleys and boroughs as you read this! So, to you fine souls who’ve already grabbed up yours — our sincere thanks! You really do help keep us going.

And, if you haven’t got one yet?

Well, fair warning…they’re only on offer for a little while — so don’t let indecision decide for you!
