What they need to do is print my memoir! It is better than any of the shit that other people write. The editors are SCUM.

Thanks for the comments!

Jill, I don’t think there will be another print run of this particular chapbook, because the nature of the Dusie Kollektiv project was kinda limited edition–and I know the woman who published it for me (Dana Teen Lomax) ran out of her special supplies.

Even though I don’t have any copies left myself though, there are still some review copies floating around out there (at The Chapbook Review and Galatea Resurrects).

Great idea, Nathan! And great answers, Juliet. I love your ideas. Can’t wait to get the pdf. Any chance you’ll have another print run?

What an interesting approach to feminism. Sort of a reclamation of terminology. And yet, who wants to claim those words? Hahaha

You mean, “facsinatin’.”

I just love this. And I wish I’d said 90 percent of it myself. Especially the part about “meat curtains.”

Thanks Nathan!

I’ll promo this on some of my sites.

It was fun to your question and I’m looking forward to reading more installments in this series, too!

ditto Deb’s comments. Will you give us a big heads-up when the chap is available online?

Deb, you should definitely read more of her work. She’s a fantastic poet.

I’m glad you like the column.

I’m really excited by this mini-interview and now want to read Cook’s work. I’m intrigued by what she is trying to do and think I’ll be more willing to dive into the wildness of her work.

Thanks for doing this, Nathan. It’s a great way to learn a little bit about the poet and how they think, what they are after. I *love* this series already!
