chapbook-o-rama

I have a diagram, A Magnetically Actuated Exercise and Amusement Device for Use with Cats, up at DIAGRAM, which is fresh.

From what I understand, these lit mags also have new issues up or out, too and I see lots of poet-bloggers:

anti

coconut

la petite zine

linebreak

tuesday; an art project

and as always, No Tell Motel has a new poet every week.

A couple fine poets I actually know in real life, Terri McCord and Carol Peters, have chapbooks coming out from Finishing Line Press. I highly recommend that you pick up their chapbooks so you can have a good swig of poetry.

The Art and The Wait: Terri McCord
Muddy Prints, Water Shine: Carol Peters

And there are a couple poet-bloggers with chapbooks forthcoming from Finishing Line:

After the Poison: Collin Kelley
and Anne Haines‘ chapbook, Breach, is being released too this year but it isn’t up on that site yet.

Yay! I can’t wait to read them!

You can pre-order the chapbooks & if you do so, you get free shipping.

… and I just realized that the Washington Post totally spelled Virgil wrong yesterday throughout that Le Guin review. :eek: (Unless I’m an idiot and Vergil is an alternate spelling I don’t know about. I’m mostly an autodidact haha. Is it?)

If your lit mag is fresh or you have a chapbook coming out, leave a comment.
