Making Sweet Chapbooks 02/06/2012
In the last month, the Sweet Design Team has been hard at work putting together our first two chapbooks. Our talented designers and book craftspeople have drawn, printed, glued, drilled and sewed--just about anything you can do to make a book! We're proud of the finished product, but even prouder of the authors who wrote them. Wordsmiths Megan Gannon and Amy Monticello will enchant you, and we're thrilled to be part of their early literary careers, which are sure to be brilliant and successful. Very, very soon we will have enough books finished so you can order them here. And if you're planning to be at the AWP Conference in Chicago, please come by the Sweet/University of South Florida table, space B8. Both chapbooks will be available for sale there for $10 each. In a few months, we'll have the e-book versions of both of these amazing books available.
