News this week from
1. Whale Sound Audio Chapbooks
2. Medusa
3. Seven by Twenty
4. Monday Morning Book Blog
5. Arsenic Lobster
(back issues of the newspaper are archived at the Wompo festival of women's poetry here:
wompherence.proboards.com ).
1. Whale Sound Audio Chapbooks (http://bit.ly/9Qg3cn) is delighted to announce the publication of 'Threatening Weather' by Howie Good (http://bit.ly/kGr2VJ).
Our publisher's slogan is "publish in multiple formats - some of them free!" So you get to download audio, PDF, EPUB and MOBI files free, if those are your preferred poetry-absorbing methods. If you like a good old paper book in your hand, you can buy the poems as a print chapbook from Lulu's (at cost-price - no publisher mark-up). If you prefer a CD to put in a player and store on your shelf, you can buy the CD version from Lulu's - also at cost-price with no mark-up. More here: bit.ly/ks4vZ5 about why we publish in the bizarro way we do."
