SUMMER 2010: STIRRUP PANTS AT ALL ALONG PRESS
wow, ok, so, yeah. just up the street at 2712 Cherokee Street is the amazing All Along Press we've long loved. and they've offered to house a newer smaller stronger version of stirrup pants chapbooks that we'll build together. a few little chaps from all over (fewer even than at 2122, but each packing the punchiest punch) available whenever they're open, which is waaaaaay more often than i ever was. we'll keep a little blog about it and everything and and and...
sorry. it was my turn on the slip n' slide. so yeah. last shop day is the 22nd, the day after exploding swan at Slow Rocket and the day before Sloup at this here closin' shop...and just a few short weeks later, the chapbooks will have a new home!
this is so cool. and a huge kindness. and more about it soon.

Last Shop Day: May 22nd
Stirrup Pants will go out with a bang the third weekend in May with a final shop-saturday and Sloup #4 on Sunday the 23rd.
All the beautiful chaps that don't sell by then will be sent back to their presses at the end of the month, wrapped in the finest saint louis lovin', so come scoop them up before they fly.
Keep an eye out for Heather Overby's next Exploding Swan that very same weekend on May 21st, which will be hosted by Slow Rocket Urban Farm!
And Amelia Colette Jones is taking Sloup mobile this summer, starting in June! On top of reaching out to artists who need funding, and soup and bread makers who want to share their talents, Sloup will now seek to partner with diverse arts and community spaces to make each Sloup unique.
I personally had an incredible year learning a little about how presses do their inspiring work, how writers and readers move through the world, and how saint louis is a truly compelling place to open a door and expect to love whomever walks in. Please email me at maggieginestra@gmail.com about what you're up to, what you're making, and what doors you're opening. I'd love to be included.
thanks, all! see you soon!

WHEN THE CHAIR BURNED...
it was so bright. Thank you, Cannibal, for being an awesomeness-magnet. Every poet truly fluttered and flamed, and STL misses them so much now.
Hearts are for breaking, we guess.
Thank you, also, Joseph Wood of Tuscaloosa, for bringing your Slash Pine Press team that same afternoon to talk chap-wizardry. You ARE wizards: you built a rose inside our chests!
Fresh chaps were generously left behind by Cannibal, Slash Pine, and DoubleCross - please everyone, come see these new goodies some soon Saturday!
