Issue 4 is out, featuring a stellar cast of poets & artists. One day, Maureen Owen was in town. We had a long lunch at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden & talked about the fun old days of mimeo magazines. Let's put on a show! We came up with the name Julebord, literally "Christmas table" in Norwegian, but colloquially the anything-goes holiday party. We're having fun & sharing some good work. Every issue has an all-new cast, with an exception or 2 (us & our "house artist," Basil King).
It's a secret who the editors really are but Maureen Owen & I are their proxies, & as such it was so much fun to be getting out a zine. I love collaborating & making something out of nothing & POETRY. Julebord No 1, with this splendid cover, includes an all-star lineup:
Bob Holman
Peter Bushyeager
