Fact-Simile Literary Trading Card Series

It is with great pleasure that we would like to announce the official launch of Fact-Simile's Literary Trading Card Series!

Every month during 2010 and beyond we will release a limited edition trading card featuring the work of a notable contemporary literary figure. Patterned after classic baseball card designs, each collectible trading card will be available for just 99 cents apiece on our website or FREE with the purchase of any Fact-Simile title/item.

That’s right: you can own a piece of literary history for the price of a song on iTunes! So go ahead...indulge. And remember to tell all your friends!

This month's featured writer is none other than the almighty Anne Waldman with a previously unpublished excerpt from her epic poem Iovis.

Many Thanks and Happy Reading,

Travis Macdonald & JenMarie Davis

Also, it's not too late to order your 2010 Calendar featuring the textual artwork of
Andrew Topel. Supplies, as they say, are running low!

But don't worry. We've got lots of great things planned for 2010 including the release of last year's Equinox Chapbook winners and a trading card series that will launch next month with
work from Anne Waldman. More on those matters soon...

Until then,
