It was a briefer visit than usual to the Small Press Book Fair this year, as I did not share a table with anyone, and the workload kept me from hanging out very long. Tina got to go for the first time this year, though, and we had the chance to chat with a bunch of people and see what everyone was up to in the print world. I was especially impressed to see a former creative writing student of mine helping out at a table, and other current UB undergrads promoting their print and zine work. Here’s what I came home with:
Couple of chaps by Eric Gelsinger, House Press
New local journal Yellow Field
The Burn Collector zine series
More zines, which I traded for / bought from some Toronto folks
