The latest title in the FOC Chapbook Series is “19th Street Station” by Paul Corman-Roberts, available now in chapbook format and soon as a free digital download “ebook” on our distribution page. (here)

The chapbook series is intended to showcase relatively short collections of work, often thematically related or centered around a unifying concept.

They are simple, ‘old-school style’ construction, and are meant to be books that are affordable and basic so that poets can easily share the work with others. Our focus is on getting the work out there, and it is work that we believe in and want to spread through our limited time and resources because we respect and admire the contribution. We don’t deal in gloss and we don’t profit, our model reflects our commitment to small press and the writers who trust us with their creative work.

The first Bitchez Brew Reading is happening at Viracocha SF, 998 Valencia Street in San Francisco this coming Friday, November 5th.  The lineup (not necessarily in this order) is as follows:

Valerie Chavez/Paul Corman-Roberts/Meg Day/Rebekah Edwards/Jonathan I. Hirsch/Kathleen Wood.

This follows in the tradition of the literary resurgence which has washed over the San Francisco Bay Area since the 2009 LitQuake Festival, whose interactive and multi-media potential has realized a vast audience not seen by Bay Area authors since the mimeo and small press revolution that enabled the Beat Movement.  We haven’t had our “Howl @ the Gallery 6″ moment just yet, nor do we necessarily need it…we simply want to make good on the promise of then and now, and the Bitchez Brew Reading Series, with it’s nod to Miles Davis Landmark fusion album of mind bending genre means to help promote just that.
