One of the great joys of all of this Hedgehog stuff, is that when life doesn’t get in the way, we get to publish a lot of poetry. And within that lot of poetry, are the Sticklebacks.
Now these are mythical beasties and come in two flavours:
1. The Anthologies: There are a lot of these flying around at the moment, and they tend to come out as eBook PDFs as and when they arise. Recently they have mainly been based on Cult Challenges, but at times more general or invitational or, well, whatever. For me they are a kind of freedom to act quickly and hopefully that will happen more and more.
2. The Single-Poet Sticklebacks: These are different in that they ALWAYS get released as a Free to Download PDF eBook – you can find every one we have ever published for Free on this web site but in addition to that, and as a way for the poet to make a few bob out of their work, we do a one-off Limited Edition Print Run. So basically, the poet gets 100 copies to sell and as with everything we publish, our Cult members get a copy too. Simple.
Anyway, as things are moving all over again, I’m pleased and proud and mega chuffed to say that there will be a steady stream of the Limited Edition Print Copies available direct from the poets, over the next weeks and months, with the first of these now available from the Brilliant and rather awesome, Mr Robin McNamara.
Robin’s Stickleback is rather gorgeous and features his long poem, “2020”, which our own Nigel Kent has just reviewed:
As I say, Robin has only 100 copies of the Stickleback and they are available direct from him for the princely sum of €5/$5/£5 p&p
You can contact Robin and get your own copy (if you are quick) via Twitter HERE
