Speaking of Hyacinth Girl Press (which published Juliet Cook's poetry chapbook, Thirteen Designer Vaginas in 2011 – it is now official (in a darkly delicious sort of way) that press has accepted another chapbook of Cook's for publication in their 4^th year – MUTANT NEURON CODEX SWARM, a collection of collaboration by Juliet Cook and Robert Cole, coming your way in 2014!

Cook is very excited and delighted to be a part of this group of five women and three men, in Hyacinth Girl Press’s 4^th year of publication:

Lisa Marie Basile - war/lock
Dan Nowak - the hows and whys of my failures
Caitlin Elizabeth Jans - Incident Reports 
Amorak Huey - The Insomniac Circus 
Risa Denenberg - blinded by clouds 
Juliet Cook and Robert Cole - Mutant Neuron Codex Swarm

Speaking of 2014 excitement, I don't usually like to focus on feeling overly excited about things way in advance, because then my excitement tends to lead towards unfocused freaked out nerve blobs, making it harder to concentrate on the here and now - BUT having said that, I will make a little exception for a few minutes here. 

I'm pretty darn excited that 2014 will be MY FIRST TIME EVER ATTENDING AWP AND HAVING A TABLE THERE - and sharing table space and poetry love with a number of other extra-special poetry women.
