Want in on the Heron2 Action?

Maybe I’m just giddy with all the chapbook excitement and being on a roadtrip with my family, but I’m having loads of fun spreading Heron2 up and down CA Highway 99 and I-5. I don’t want to hog all the fun myself, though. So I’ve got a deal for you…

Next Round of Signature Chapbooks

It must be 15 February somewhere in the world by now. And that means it is time to announce the selected chapbook authors for our next round of Signature Series Chapbooks. We were thrilled to see the high quality of all the entries, yet sad when we had to let some go.

Heron2 Now Available

In case you missed the live-chat launch a week and a half ago, Heron issue 2 is ready for immediate download from the Nest. This issue of Heron features three poems by Eric Burke, one of our Regular Contributors that has graced both Form.Reborn and unFold. We have pdf versions you may download and print, in both letter-size and A4. We also have an mp3 of Eric reading his poems.

New Review Series

We are happy to announce that we will now review chapbooks here on the Folded Word blog. Our review column will be called “Delectable Words” and will start as a monthly feature. Jessie Carty has agreed to be our primary reviewer, but Ben White and others will be popping in from time to time.
