Call for submissions for Spirit Duplicator, new magazine from Adam Tobin
From Adam Tobin: “We are starting a magazine! Spirit Duplicator. 8.5x11 paper, stapled along one edge. 64 pages, 100 copies. To be issued maybe twice a year? Distributed to its contributors and via Unnameable Books. Poems will be typed on a typewriter and xeroxed at the copyshop until we get the CopyRite machine working. It will be very pretty. Please send us your work!
1-10 pages, multiple poems or one. We are looking for “poems”, but we don't really know what that means. These days a lot of poems are made of prose and other things. I like experiment and sound, socialist politics and serious play. Catherine likes poems that are surprising, haunted/ing, avant garde, visual, sonic, lyric, and tender. But we are both open to other possibilities of poetry.
Send your poems in whatever format makes sense (doc, pdf, etc, or actual paper) by July 1. You can send them to Adam Tobin & Catherine Bresner / spiritduplicator000@gmail.com”
