Mulch Time

Let's

arrange our cups
and plates on the floor
in the shape
of a clock. Watch
time stand still.

-- Christine Hemp, Pontoon 7

As we approach the end of our physical and fiscal year, FBP is tidying up. Final reports for our grants are being written, printed, folded, stamped and mailed; copies of Pontoon 9 are being sent out to our contributors, distributors, bookstores, libraries and reviewers; and old files are being mulched back into the recycle bin.

Also, we are planting the seeds for next year. Our guidelines for the 2007 Floating Bridge Press Chapbook Award have been mailed out and posted, we're looking over our "To-Do" lists, creating new physical and cyber file folders, and stocking up on herbal tea. Let the fall rains come, we say! We're ready.
