So beyond grateful to be part of this collection, this lineage that Kyle at Cuneiform has created over these 25 years. What a beautiful string of pearls!
Please join me for the Cuneiform Radio Hour on Monday from 11 to noon for a very special reading and conversation with Sunnylyn Thibodeaux, whose selected poems, Lucky Charms, was just published by City Lights Books in San Francisco. Tune in to 91.7 FM or stream the show at WGDR.org. And be sure to check out Sunnylyn's new poems in the Cuneiform: A Retrospective, Celebrating Twenty-Five Years of Poetry, Typography, & Artists' Books.

There is a notable imbalance to the law of supply and demand when it comes to culture. Take a quick count: in every generation, there are more people who consume culture than those who create it; there are more people involved in the pursuit of happiness than in its making.
