I found ~one~ last copy of my book, “Day Three of a Five Day Headache” (@publishedbyjake.bsky.social), which I think is the last unclaimed copy from the two editions we did…it’s a free gift to anyone who wants it: some paper masquerading as a book of poems, re: #chronicpain at the end of the world.
This might be my last ever publication with @publishedbyjake.bsky.social, so check out "Three Meals, Waterloo IL, Christmas 2025" now: jakethemag.com/three-meals-...

JAKE@publishedbyjake.bsky.social · 5mo agoUpdated lineup with a few more friendly faces:
Packed a small cardboard box w/author copies to put in my suitcase for Baltimore. Will probably do the same w/a few copies of the @publishedbyjake.bsky.social titles, so if you want one and see me around, I might be able to hook you up.
Ohhhh I’ll be there! Reading! I’m reading!
