My chapbook is out! (Well, nearly)
Kitchen is, as you can see from the cover, a collection of my marriage poetry: erotic, funny, whistful, or all three at once. I've been working on manuscript design for a week, and I finally took it to the printer (okay, to Office Depot) today. The cover will follow soon, and then we'll see if my coptic stitching is up to snuff. There's always the saddle stapler. It's short -- 20 pages.
I had fun putting this together. Making a space for the poems, gathering them up, is satisfying, and gives them a chance to talk to each other in neat ways. I would like to do this again, for more of my small collections. (Particularly A Box for Light, though that may not be quite done yet.)
I will have sale details soon (I just need to figure out how much it costs me to print) but it will probably be about $5. Let me know if you want a copy.
Thanks for the carrots, qB.

Want some! I’ll have to come up with a number, but at this point it’s 2, maybe more :) I love the carrot.

I’d like a copy, but I’m down south (in the U.S.) so you’ll have to let me know how you’d prefer to handle exchange rates and such. Thanks!
I would definitely like to purchase a copy. And I love the carrots!
mmmeeee meeee meeeee meeeee!
Woah! That’s amazing!! I thought the carrots would be part of a suggestive vegetable montage, not standing up straight and proud on their own. I am sooooo happy that they look so good. And I can’t wait to read the book.

I have a chapbook Transfer that I would like to swap for one of your chapbooks. Writing samples are available at http://myspace.com/alanking81 and http://myspace.com/bustransfer.
If after reading the samples you are interested in trading, please provide a mailing address for me to send a copy.
Thank you in advance. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Until then, Alan
