Come on in! We’re open!

Okay. It’s a bit rough around the edges, but we have finally opened our (virtual) bookstore.

Here’s the entrance. Come on in.

Once inside, you will see our entire catalog of books. Don’t freak out when you see only one title in this catalog, because we all know that it’s going to grow into something incredible.

For now, you have the option to buy the old fashioned way…by mailing us a check. And the check needs to be made out to me, Chiwan Choi, because we haven’t been able to set up a business account at the bank yet.

Or, for those of you youngsters out there who like to do everything through the interweb, we have the Amazon link for the book. Yes people, the book is up on Amazon.com finally! (We think it’s going to be on the Barnes & Noble online.)

Hopefully, our PayPal system will be set up by this weekend and we’ll be able to put one of those “buy now” buttons on the page so you don’t have to mail a check or go to Amazon.

(Note: It is wonderful getting our book on Amazon so those of you not nearby can purchase the book, and we definitely encourage this. However, I think once we set up the PayPal system, it will be better for us when people purchase directly through our website. Amazon just takes such a big cut from the sale that it’s difficult for small presses. BUT either way you buy the book, we’re 100% thankful! So shop away!)

Thank you again for all the support and pass the word to friends, family, neighbors, strangers…

Peace.

WLP interviewed on BlogTalkRadio

Writ Large Press was interviewed by Stacey Mangiaracina and Roy Johnston of “Between the Sheets,” a show on BlogTalkRadio. They wanted to know what our process has been in launching a small literary press and we read some of the poems from Kim’s collection.

The two hosts were really great, generous and supportive, and we’re looking forward to speaking to them again.

We have the Proof

It’s here. It’s beautiful. And we’re excited as all freakin’ hell. Yesterday, we received the proof copy of Who’s to Say What’s Home from Lightning Source.

We spent a good amount of time going through the pages, checking for errors, and mostly staring at it from all angles. To paraphrase our dear friend Michelle in New York, it is beautiful and perfect. (Okay, there was one slightly misaligned page that we instantly corrected, but still perfect!)

LAUNCH DATE SET – Friday 5/2!!

MARK YOUR CALENDARS: Friday, May 2nd, 7 pm on. The Writ Large Press Launch. Kim Calder book release.

We just talked to a manager at La Cita and he says it’s a go. We’re going to have our launch and release party there on May 2nd. So mark your calendars and plan on joining us.

They’re letting us have the back patio of the bar at no cost, other than all the booze that people will be buying and drinking, on a Friday night. It will start at 7 and we’ll start wrapping up around 10′ish.
