I LOVE MARSH HAWK PRESS

for many reasons but one reason is that it actually gives Author Advances (!) for poetry books! Crazy, yah? This is, after all, poetry and an indie press ... and not cash from, say, contest fees!

Anyway, thanks to New York State Literary Publishers Capacity Fund for a grant that will help finance said Author Advance for moi Spring 2012 book. I promise it is WELL SPENT!
