persnicket press update!

my new zine "litmus playground #2: kelsey excelsior!" and [livejournal.com profile] glimmerkirk's new mini-chapbook of poems "a boy in seven seasons" are both now available for purchase on our website!

please visit, have a look around! and also a snicker at my ridiculously low-rent web design.



*****



the cover was printed on our letterpress. inside you'll find 16 or so pages about my letterpress obsessions, its history, and the story of how we finally bought one and got started. there is also a page of illustrations, showing press equipment and supplies.

$3.00 within the US, $3.50 internationally. concealed cash accepted!

kirk's book of poems. on the persnicket press zines page, you can read the writer's statement from the book, where kirk talks about the origin of this particular group of poems.

$3.00 within the US, $3.50 internationally. concealed cash accepted!

[must resist the urge to post snarky fake questions!]

note to jesse's readers, i haven't gotten to kirk's poems yet, but the new litmus playground is so wonderful and interesting and endearing in its glee about letters and letterpress. it's informative and also often funny. and the cover is beautiful (on both zines)

also, your web site looks so good! i think it's as good as hand-coded basic html design gets (and turning that into something that looks really professional or that has a lot of atmosphere and elegance is something that totally mistifies me). i like the bios :)

thank you! it is good to hear that it looks okay. i really have no desire to go further than basic images and basic tables.

glad you like the bios -- i was just messing around with them last night and decided to post them anyway. kirk laughed when he read his.

seeing this makes me feel sooooooooo lazy.
anyhow, me = "patron of the arts" now.
looking forward to reading.

thank you so much for ordering! i hope you like them.
(besides, patronage is so not lazy!)

patronage certainly is lazier than buying your
own letterpress & making your own zines. ;)
