In the Telling: Promoting Mythic & Fairy Tale Poetry

Apr 28, 2009 13:03

From erzebet (lovely editrix of Cabinet des Fées*):

Speaking of sentences**, the mythic/fairy tale anthology In The Telling (in which we find a title by an author whose work I happen to love) might not see the light of day due to low pre-sales. Times are hard and selling poetry is always hard, but I know that the people who read this blog are huge supporters of poetry and mythic fiction in general.

From the website:
"In the Telling celebrates the art of storytelling-whether the making of myth or the stories we tell ourselves to bring narrative and shape to the lives we leave. These fine narrative pieces in lyric form showcase the poetic talents of some of the most interesting emerging poets from Wales, the UK and the world. Woven together by skilled editors, both experienced poets, this array of stories become a poetic journey of meaning found in the telling."

Please visit Cinnamon Press (scroll down until you read the blurb for In The Telling) and, if it moves you, support this wonderful cause.

* Cabinet des Fées lately got an amazing make-over thanks to the designing prowess of erzebet! Check it out-- these are new clothes I guarantee you'll see the grandeur of! ;)

** erzebet also recently made a fascinating post about the power of stories, the essence of which can be distilled into one hard-hitting sentence. Join in the discussion!
