Reviews:
New York Library Association Books of Summer 2005
Cleveland Plain Dealer Top 20 Summer Reads 2005
"Contains probably some of the very worst poetry in print today." FFWD
"(It) is an anthology that, in a lot of ways, is probably more entertaining, useful and therapeutic than, frankly, too many poetry collections... A smart high school English teacher would put this on a course list with Shakespeare." Montreal Mirror
"Bad rhymes, awkward phrases and pacing, nonsensical imagery and melodrama make up the poems in this collection. Iambic pentameter will be hard to come by, but not laughs, as a result of reading such gems as, "In the hand of friendship/You are the hangnail of discontent" (from And So It Goes), and "My hurt did not leave/you took my heart/you are the thieve" (James Breakup Poem). For the book, laughs from readers means mission accomplished." Metro
Also featured in Nylon Magazine, Giant Magazine, Curves Magazine, The Boston Hearld, and lots of Canadian Media (the editor's a Canuck).
Also in Vancouver, BC, Canada there are bad poetry nights hosted by Sara Bynoe Editor of Teen Angst: A Celebration of REALLY BAD Poetry. check out www.teenangstpoetry.com for info
