There's a new issue of Sixth Finch out, and it is free to the public. I have two poems in there, if you're interested.

Thank you, Nat Otting, for the Portland shout out on HTMLGiant. He gives Genya Turovskaya's new Octopus chap some props, and a big hi five to the small press scene here in Rip City. Semi-pro to the grave. 

Maybe buy this lovely new chapbook from Octopus Books I was talking about earlier? It's not backward.

Dear Portland-based Charles Olson fans, on Friday I will be a participant in the first third of a marathon reading of Maximus Poems at the Switchyard Studios from 4 to 9. Come bring your pillows, your good will, your gigantic beating heart.

Black Ocean 4 Life! Get a tattoo, get their books free for life. Check it.

Also, Octopus Books'll get on this wagon too. If you show me or Mathias yr Octopus Books tatt, our books are always yours. I'm thinking the one eared rabbit from The Difficult Farm, or the skeleton hands from Tuned Droves. Any other small press going to step up for the lifetimers?

I have three poems from FJORDS, a manuscript in progress, in the second issue of Paperbag.

I interview Michael Earl Craig about Thin Kimono for HTMLGiant. So.
