I did that at lulu, & the pdf form is free--others have done this, too--the biggest "name" I'm familiar with who has done this is Bill Knott, a controversial figure, but definitely a "known" poet. I agree we should emrabce anything that makes the work more accessible!<br /><br />Martin: Good for you!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15687192784861682991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821243838031243709.post-10665789170195301712010-07-21T22:39:45.739-07:002010-07-21T22:39:45.739-07:00I sent for mine earlier this week.

T. and I have been discussing the ...Congrats, Kat!<br /><br />T. and I have been discussing the eventuality of poetry moving to the electronic book form. I think it will happen sooner rather than later -- a name like Billy Collins will decide to publish that way if the publisher will take full advantage of the design and hypertext opportunities. The publisher will jump on the opportunity because of the poet's name and because the book will be relatively small, meaning that it can be designed less expensively.<br /><br />Personally, I think it's something poets should embrace.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10222703055177237209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821243838031243709.post-18501795171094891452010-07-21T17:18:38.401-07:002010-07-21T17:18:38.401-07:00Hi Kat: You are really welcome!Hi Kat: You are really welcome!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15687192784861682991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821243838031243709.post-77181731514008366112010-07-21T16:58:36.053-07:002010-07-21T16:58:36.053-07:00Thanks, John!
