Filter III Release and Reading next Friday, June 17!!


So excited to be part of the newest incarnation of Filter Literary Journal. And to attend and take part in the reading next Friday. If you're in Seattle, this is an event not to miss. And I say that not because I'll be there, and not even because of the other folks reading; you don't want to wait to get a copy of Filter. They are phenomenally beautiful and sell out quickly.



Filter Vol. III Release Party

An evening of readings from Zachary Schomburg, John Osebold, Stacey Levine, Maged Zaher, Karen Finneyfrock, Ed Skoog, Elizabeth J. Colen, Elissa Washuta, Susan Rich and Sarah Bartlett . Freshly letterpressed copies of the book will be available for purchase.

Friday, June 17th, 8p.m.at the Fremont Abbey, 4272 Fremont Ave North, Seattle, WA 98103

Filter Vol. III has arrived. This 3rd issue of the entirely handmade journal is a box of wonder: The cover has a paint-by-numbers theme, and the box structure is letterpress printed by Kate Fernandez of Fernandez and Sons.
