I entered their competition in the first place after reading Michael Sowder's _A Calendar of Crows_ (another nice cover).<BR/><BR/>I was very lucky to run across my artwork and even more fortunate that the artist was local.

Line drawing or photo? <BR/><BR/>I look at art online pretty often, thinking about covers for WB, even with our somewhat limited parameters (must be color painting, no abstracts, no photographs, no b&w, must be narrative or representational art, etc.). <BR/><BR/>Of all the chapbooks I've bought (and there are many), only a few really stand out in terms of their covers. I think GreenTower really got it right with Jamie Simpson's _Catch and Release_. And does anyone else have H L Hix's _The Kindling Point_? It was produced by the St Louis Poetry Center as part of their Stanley Hanks chapbook series: roughly 8x8 square cover, RED, with a stylized black flame in the center, nicely minimalistic.Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08416207541838290910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8487146.post-1151420158100194082006-06-27T09:55:00.000-05:002006-06-27T09:55:00.000-05:00Deal.Deal.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05607786046959671496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8487146.post-1151385237932059092006-06-27T00:13:00.000-05:002006-06-27T00:13:00.000-05:00I have a chapbook coming out this fall as well, fr...I have a chapbook coming out this fall as well, from the fledgling Ropewalk Press. The book is called "Hush of Something Endless". Limited run--150-200 last I heard--but it looks good for a first attempt (Ropewalk's) at a chapbook. It's not a book, but I guess I should feel good about it. When they're ready, I'll show you mine if you show me yours...Name: Matthew Guenettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06901074740673802260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8487146.post-1151332381058597452006-06-26T09:33:00.000-05:002006-06-26T09:33:00.000-05:00Exit Interview.Exit Interview.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05607786046959671496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8487146.post-1151332334823443172006-06-26T09:32:00.000-05:002006-06-26T09:32:00.000-05:00Hey Paul,What's the title of the chap?Hey Paul,<BR/><BR/>What's the title of the chap?Josh Hansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04072181113771913036noreply@blogger.com
