We just got online and I had been meaning to look up Coach House since I saw you. I am very impressed and glad to see you have done so well since I knew you at JT (Grad '84)! BTW I too am involved in books. I have my degree in Library Tech. and am a former critic for Canadian Content magazine! :0) Take care!

Phallic winters prove the bitterest. The lamentations of the bereaved mothers could only be described as phallic. The critical assessment of Gertrude Stein's work after the rise of "ecriture feminine" has been plagued by an overemphasis on the details of her phallic life. Neil M Hennessy <nhennessy@uwaterloo.ca> Toronto 24 June 1999 a noun anon for Stephen Cain Garden gnomes and flamingos are the most popular productivity in America. Productivity accounts for 34% of all manufacturing defects in golf club production. Productivity has been known to seek shelter in caves during thunderstorms. In addition to the overwhelming lack of public interest in productivity, government funding for productivity has been suffering a gradual decline in the past decade. Baking soda toothpaste has been clinically proven to help fight productivity better than the leading brands. 43% of all Ontario high school teachers require more productivity after 5 years of retirement. Productivity is the most popular vacation spot in Erie County. Many commentators have noted the surprising lack of any reference to productivity in Samuel Johnson's posthumously published "Prayers and Meditations".

He seems to express my innermost yearnings, to know exactly what I am thinking and feeling. He says what I would like to say, had I the words or ambition. I kept thinking, "Damn, I wish I had said that!" -Gary Barwin Gary Barwin <barwin@interlynx.net> Hamiltonacorn, Canadada 9 March 1999 There is a new book of poetry out called "Messy on the Inside". It is a 90-page collection written entirely in formal verse by award-winning writer Eileen Albrizio. This powerful book combines haunting, contemporary imagery with classic grace. Albrizio's poems are deeply emotional, highly charged, sometimes witty and very, very honest. There are few poets today who can touch the soul. Albrizio is one of them. Check out her web page: http://pages.hotbot.com/arts/albrizio This page showcases some of Albrizio's work, and provides links to find out more! Once you crack the binding of this new book, you will see why it is an essential edition to your poetry collection!!!!!

I was curious as to the amount of books you put out each year and if you have any guidelines or suggestions for aspiring writers who pester you endlessly, I mean, who might be interested in being seriously published? Thanks, -n- nathaniel george-moore <nnathaniel@hotmail.com> Waterloo, Canada [Editor's note: We do have submission information online in Frequently Asked Questions.

Best of luck! Paul Wm Roberts <pwr@interlog.com> Toronto
