Birds LLC

Check out Birds LLC, a new publishing collective run by poets Dan Boehl, Justin Marks, Matt Rasmussen, Sampson Starkweather, & Chris Tonelli.

Their first two titles are now available for pre-order,The French Exit by Elisa Gabbert & The Trees Around by Chris Tonelli which you can now get both or a steal at $20.

Birds looks to be a strong new press, and with the arrival of Tonelli’s collection, without fear of the stigma that comes with self publishing.

Which makes me ask – how do you feel about self publishing? As a reader does it change your perception at all?

      As a reader, I often feel like what is on the page is important first second third fourth maybe fifth. Do I notice it? Yes. Do I care? Hardly. If it is cool, it’s cool. If it is not, it is not. To me.

      Reb Livingston wrote an excellent post about self-publishing (last year? two years ago?) that I subscribe to.

      Tonelli is upfront, he’s not secretly padding his codpiece, er, CV, sorry, CV.
