Some backchannelling going on about the putative Big P Riley book. I'm
confident some kind of collaboration can be worked out, and Reality Street
Editions is committed to working with others towards a positive outcome.
I've also had a very positive reaction to the idea (informally) from
Eastern Arts. More news soon I hope.
I'm glad to say that, following my recent plea, four members of this list
have joined the Reality Street supporter scheme. The current list of
supporters is:
Karlien van den Beukel
Robert Hampson
Romana Huk
Lisa Kiew
Peter Larkin
Tony Lopez
Drew Milne
Doug Oliver
Ian Robinson
Spanner/Allen Fisher
Andrew Toovey
2 x anonymous
Just to remind you - supporters receive a copy of every book published
during a three-year period in return for a donation of £50 (minimum). They
also get their name listed in the back of each book, unless they prefer
anonymity.
This deal includes the following books already published:
Lisa Robertson: Debbie, an Epic (£7.50_
Cris Cheek/Sianed Jones: Songs From Navigation (book + CD) (£12.50)
Maurice Scully: Steps (£6.50)
Ken Edwards: Futures (novel) (£6.99)
and imminently:
RSE 4Pack No 2: Vital Movement - with work by Andy Brown, Jennifer
Chalmers, Mike Higgins and Ira Lightman (£5)
and to come: books by Barbara Guest, Tony Lopez, Robert Sheppard, Denise
Riley, Lawrence Upton; a Tom Raworth celebration; the big fat P Riley
assuming that gets off the ground with RSE input; and 4Pack No 3 (now
confirmed as including Patricia Farrell, Shelby Matthews, Simon Perril and
Keston Sutherland). That's about all I can cope with contemplating for now.
Thanks all - K
