"Art Over Numbers"
"To be blunt, without a distributor of some kind most small press books are liable to get ignored or lost in the mix. Direct sales, while the most lucrative for press and author alike, normally only account for a small portion of a press’s revenue, and in my experience running Fonograf Editions at least, for every five hundred Instagram likes a post about a new book gets, we’re lucky if ten actual purchases are made."

What Sparks Poetry:
Jody Gladding on [she is one who looks]
"Released from the bubble of voice, narrative, and image, words animate space differently—the degraded 'open space,' the space of the poem. They inhabit it, root, and evolve there. Perhaps they have always done so, they just needed to be freed from lineation and author/ity to make that clear. These are not my own words. They refuse ownership. You can read them any way you like." |
