      I’m terrible at keeping track of this sort of thing but I do know I bought Adam Robison and Other Poems, Less Shiny by Mary Miller, Pathologies by William Walsh, Wolf Parts by Matt Bell, CONGRATULATIONS! THERE’S NO LAST PLACE IF EVERYONE IS DEAD by Matt DeBenedictis (sp?), and Threadbare von Barren by Nicolle Elizabeth. I was trying to control myself because I buy a lot of stuff at AWP. I’m bringing a suitcase juuuust for books and magazines.
