‘Mædwe’, the new pamphlet from @corinnaboard.bsky.social, breathes shimmering new life into the familiar sights and sounds of the meadow. I particularly loved the skilled and sensitive use of form in this gorgeous little collection. Highly recommended! @salopress.bsky.social

We are Galia Admoni and Wendy Allen, authors of i get lost everywhere, you know this now and Art Sundays @salopress.bsky.social. We write about art and getting lost (me) and how we feel about everything as we look at art. Salo is a very cool independent publisher so check them out! 🩷

As a tiny independent DIY press we have zero funding, we'll likely never be on an awards list, but we are passionate about what we do, and paying writers. We pay our writers 50% of profits. Every sale matters more than you know. Thank you for the continued support 💜 www.salopress.com
