HORRIFIC CONFECTION IN PRINT







Horrific Confection is Juliet Cook's first full-length poetry collection, 66 pages of hideously delicious ooze.


This collection was published by BlazeVOX as a FREE e-book and you can still visit the BlazeVOX website to read and/or download this book for absolutely free. Scroll down to earlier entry for the link, as well as more information about the book.


Now for the paper and print and book as artifact fetishists amongst us, who like to hold and caress and turn pages as they read, a VERY SMALL print run of Horrific Confection is available. The author would even be delighted to sign your copy, if you ask nicely.

It is sleek, it is shiny, it has a darkly delectable cover designed by artist Christen Baer and the innards are awfully succulent.


Peruse and/or acquire it here:

HORRIFIC CONFECTION



My first full-length poetry collection--HORRIFIC CONFECTION--is now available as a BlazeVOX ebook.

Dripping with a darkly delectable cover designed by artist Christen Baer.

Oozing with my hideously succulent choking hazards posing as consumables.

It is FREE to read and download (a small print run will be creeping onto the scene later for those who might desire to hold it or lick it or spit on it).





Dig in if you dare and feel free to let me know how it tastes.

XO. Juliet Cook

Sarah Palin denounces BlazeVOX [books]


In an odd twist on the campaign trail, Gov. Sarah Palin made a viscous attack on America’s cultural landscape, specifically mentioning BlazeVOX [books] a Buffalo, NY based publisher, as “Anti-American and unpatriotic.”

Standing before a sea of red T-shirts and homemade signs reading “No Communists!” and “Palin’s Pitbulls,” Ms. Palin on Tuesday nestled in to her Republican base. Ms. Palin struck at some of the same themes, portraying BlazeVOX [books] as a liberal poetry outlet with a “left-wing agenda that’s packaged and prettied up to look good like mainstream poetry.”

Mentioning poets as Kent Johnson, Michael Kelleher, Anne Waldman, Ted Greenwald, and others; and identifying BlazeVOX [books] founder and publisher, Geoffrey Gatza, as the man Cheney should have shot in the face!

Find out why you should support BlazeVOX [books] more than ever! Check out our new catalog and buy a book – if only to burn!

girls that ooze


Flyer by Kristin Mahlen, created for 'Horrific Confection' by Juliet Cook.
Please see previous entry for more details about this book. Yum.
P.S. Appropriately (or inappropriately) enough, someone stumbled upon this blog recently after searching for 'girls that ooze'. Someone else got here by way of 'making a cake ooze'.
