now, can you tell me why these rumored dusie chaps have no home on the dusie website? how does one get them? how does one determine whether one wants to get them? i could write dusie directly, i supposed. maybe i will.

yeah. from the website one presumes the chapbooks are as-yet unavailable, something. it's weird.

should i have hypennated "as-yet"?

i'm gonna assume from the fact that the excerpt is well written that laura j. miller is not the same laura miller of the nytbr/salon/etc.

have you read this book, reluctant capitalists? thanks for pointing to it.

just got the book; just begun it. different laura miller: this one's a professor of sociology at brandeis.

i've got a pet theory budding, so i'm hoping the book's a whetstone.

Hello,

The Dusie chaps are due to come out in the e-version hopefully very soon, by the end of June and will all be online, free! (40 to be precise!)

So the poets all made chaps for all 43 participants in the first run of 50, and I have suggested a run number 2 for those who wish to sell (at a very nominal fee) or swap---

You can contact individual poets for a 'real' copy for a swap or somesuch thing...

Also thanks for linking to Elizabeth's book which should be announced like any minute!

All Bests,

Susana
