Final Corrections (for real this time)
We got our proof copy of Aaron’s book on Friday.
The hope is, with each proofreading session, every error will be caught. Um…no.
It’s like they multiply while you’re not looking. Those stray commas. Them extra spaces. Those O’s mistaken for o’s.
Anyway, caught all of ‘em this time for sure! I swear! And back to the printer. Ready to order the 250 copies for the PARTY!!
Come to the party and you’ll see how perfect the book is.

Review of Kim’s collection in Rattle
Here’s, at least as far as I know, the first review of our very first title, Kim Calder’s Who’s to Say What’s Home.
It appears in Rattle and Kim is very happy with the review.
I like this passage best:
I found one of the best poems of the collection to be “emergency room,” in which the daughter has to face her father’s aging and eventual death. This is a universal issue that we all have to deal with, yet the poem doesn’t veer into triteness at all. Calder demonstrates a remarkable ability to portray real grief – which I find refreshing in the midst of the many poems in this collection that seem to try to drown grief out.
Check it out!

Is It Finally Ready
I think it is finally that time to send the manuscript to the printer…but just one last glance at all the dots and commas and dashes…

Sun 5/31 – 6 PM – Tongue & Groove – AARON HENNE
Our author and well-loved playwright/teacher Aaron Henne will be reading at the great Tongue & Groove this coming Sunday.
Although we’ve had to push the release of his book back a bit, Aaron is one of the hardest working people in the biz.
So do come and check it out. To hear him and also to hear the other fantastic writers (I personally am very excited about hearing Evan Wright).
See you there. Click picture for better view of info.
