That means it’s almost time to stop using Tumblr.

sillyandrew:

my dear ol’ college buddy joseph carlough over at displaced snail publications (http://www.josephcarlough.com/ http://snailboat.tumblr.com/ http://www.etsy.com/shop/DisplacedSnail ) has been awesome enough to help my publish my first little chapbook!

it’s called “Sir Baden Powell Patrol Award Winners, 2003-04: 33 short poems on nostalgia, bugs, the winter months, and a house in Orange County, New York.” and it’s simple, and modest, and it fits in your pocket, and it’s full of poems that i’ve written and want to share with you. inside you’ll find 33 poems, that have all previously appeared on my tumblr. (the catch is, now that i’m releasing the book, i’m taking all 33 of these poems down!) so, if you want to read any of these gems again, or you just want to get your hands on some of my poems in printed form, you’ll just have to buy the book!

i know, i know, but don’t worry, it’s only three dollars! so if you want to get your hands on a copy, or eight, head on over to the etsy that i just made! there you’ll find an ever better description of the book, some pictures, and everything else you’ll need to know. ( http://www.etsy.com/shop/AndrewChmielowiec ) (edit: the link is fixed!)

please, please, please re-blog this and help spread the word!

(also: permalink at http://sillyandrew.tumblr.com/publications!)

Missed this when it was posted! Here’s my buddy chatting about the book I printed for him. He’s selling it on his Etsy - $3 for 33 poems. That’s less than 10 cents a poem!
