Necropolis is coming . . .

Okay, just a quickie post.

Necropolis, by Jill Alexander Essbaum, is inching its way towards publication. I now have an introduction/foreword (I have to decide which word soon) by Jill Baumgaertner, the Poetry Editor at The Christian Century, and so I'm getting really really really close. Mostly, I have a lot of tedious, dumb noodling to do in the typesetting. Hours worth, really.

But as I press toward a late April release date, I've decided to offer a prepublication price of only $10. It'll retail at $13.95, so that's a pretty good deal, as deals go in these (not really, not quite) recession-like days. Oh yeah, and postpaid, if you're okay with media mail. (Add 2 bucks if you wnat other shipping.) Payments via PayPal or U.S. Mail. Email me at neo (at) neonuma (dot) com for details. This offer is good until April 15.

I'll be posting more about Jill and her poetry (she has some new poems forthcoming in Poetry, and for you poets out there, you know that's a bit like climbing Mt. Everest, winning the Super Bowl, or maybe winning American Idol---except way cooler and of more lasting value).

That's all I have time for today. More soon. Lots going on.
