Please enjoy the whole of Good on Paper by @amygcb.bsky.social from Issue 15 of Stanchion.

Would you like it if Stanchion offered expedited submission responses for a small charge?
Say, $5 for a 48-hour response (+ a free PDF of your choice of any Stanchion book) after the August 1st, 24-hour sub window to make Issues 16 & 17?

Serious question: Are my chapbooks priced too low? Too high?
Most are between 60-90 pages and cost $13 (cover price) or $11 (when pre-ordered). Plus shipping, of course.
What's the sweet spot for a book of that size that's fair for readers and for authors who are getting paid?

A 3 month heads-up:
Stanchion will open for submissions, for 24 hours, on Thursday, August 1st, to make Issues 16 & 17.
I print beautiful issues, I pay a little bit, I nominate & champion, and I never ever charge a fee because writers should be paid to write, not pay to be read.

My mom carries with her a lace handkerchief from her mother. She loves that the heirloom keeps her connected to her mom. I found an Etsy seller making embroidered flower handkerchiefs with lace & Book Club Members will be receiving one with their copy of We Don't Know That This Is Temporary in May.

Nice reading last night. Nice after party with tables of tapas and drinks shared with a gaggle of great writers. The fact that people come from hours away to be a part of a Stanchion event blows me away and makes me blush. Thank you for making this so damn beautiful. ๐ค๐ค
