Chapbook
Hi everyone,
I have a chapbook coming out this November. The initial manuscript was critiqued by the wonderful Cathy Chandler, and Rhina Espaillat and Alfred Nicol have been generous enough to provide blurbs. The book is still in presale so the cover is not on the site (an artist friend of mine, Abbie Wannamaker, will be providing it), and they still have not given Alfred a last name on the site.

Please consider preordering it. It would mean a lot to me. Many of these were improved by your eye, and this particular collection is particularly personal: many are about my father, who died 10 years ago--the anniversary of which compelled me to worked towards making sure a chapbook came out within this year. Originally I hoped to sell it after reading with Rachel Hadas (she'd wow them and maybe I'd benefit from her amazing work), but, you know Covid.
If you'd like a personalized message or something like that, or would prefer not to buy it off the website, please just let me know.
Thank you all for your support!
-Andrew

Hey Andrew,
Congrats!
It just so happens that I ordered a chapbook from FLP the other day, so I wrote to them now to ask if I can add yours to the order and have them shipped together.
Great title btw.
Andrew

Hi Andrew,
Would you be able to send a personalized copy to the UK? I would love to have one.
I'll PM my address to you, if that's OK, and pay the postage, naturally.
(I have this up on the Deep End at the moment; it's not specified as such but it is about the death of my father, a little longer ago than yours, but it's an event that looms large for both of us, ...as indeed the loss of a loved parent does to everyone.)

Thank you all!
Mary, thanks for the kudos!
Andrew, I'm glad that this worked out and I appreciate you picking up the text!
Jayne, yes, lets find a way to make that work. I'd be very happy to personalize it (though I must apologize in advance for my handwriting!).
Aaron, thank you! I appreciate it!
