4. Tinfish Press is pleased to announce the launching of a new website. Please visit us here:

We also have two new books, the first two listed in the catalogue. I will be on HPR's The Conversation on Tuesday, December 18 to talk about Jack London is Dead: Contemporary Euro-American Poetry in Hawai`i (and some stories). Their link is here:
