a good day...
freshly opened...
the four color letterpressed spines on the clamshells...
basking in the goodness.
the presentation copies have gold silk spines and the lettered copies have red silk spines. these things are unreal looking, and the trade paperback sofcovers are glorious as well. they are all signed and the watercolors inserted and the manuscript broads, cds and all else are ready to go. looks like everything will start shipping at the first of the week. thanks again to everyone involved in this fantastic book.

It looks very well done.
And I'm looking forward to holding
my copy for the first time.

I'm excited, too! I'll be checking the mailbox awaiting your gorgeous book's arrival.
thanks y'all.
I hope the reading is as good as the package it comes in...
they start shipping on Monday.
i'm quite confident it is. in fact, i know that it is. ;)
and Bill Roberts at BoSP is offering custom handmade clamshells for the lettered hardbacks, in the same red silk as the binding, for $60.
just so you know...
hmmmm...might just be worth it.
Congratulations! I can't wait to read it and will definitely order a copy.

V for Vendetta
I was on my way to school.
I got the mail. I opened the cd,
listening to it on my way to class,
driving slow... a rock in a stream.
I don't remember if I made it to class on time, but it didn't matter.
The world is
once again as it should be.
For those keeping track at home:

Okay,
Father Luke
also, I'm curious which poems were in your hardbacks...since they are all different and unpubbed anywhere and all new and fresh of the machines...
oh, and THANKS JULIE! you'll have to let me know what you think...and congrats to you on all your recent successes as well...

Okay,
Father Luke
those are the same poems i have on my broadsides.
just kidding.
at work now so can't quote the titles at this moment, will report back later.
great stuff, guys.
as the only person on this planet to have met the both of you (and that includes each of you as well) i am lucky in that i can discern a specialness from these letters. these guys are like this in real life. it's fantastic!
