The Furious Spinner

Drum roll, please! Today I got my copies of Counting on Wildflowers: An Entanglement by Kim Antieau. This small book is 105 pages of primarily my essays, along with some poetry and a short story. Some of the work you have seen here at Furious Spinner, some you haven't. Seven of the pieces have been previously published in journals or on websites. Counting on Wildflowers is $9.00 plus shipping, available from the feminist publisher Aqueduct Press. (There isn't a direct link to my book; if you want to order it, you need to click on "orders" once you get to the website.)

Many of these essays are from "Falling: A Memoir in Nature," so they combine my love of Nature with my feelings about the state of the world, including the state of my own body. Counting on Wildflowers: An Entanglement includes two original drawings by extraordinary writer and artist Terri Windling, along with several photographs by yours truly. Aqueduct Press is doing great work. They published Life by Gwyneth Jones which just won the 2005 Philip K. Dick Award. I am honored to be part of their "Conversation Pieces." I hope the book does well. Blessed be. 0 comments
