the editing process

I
writing & typing the poems

i first write poems on my phone or paper, then rewrite them until i feel i would be able to read them aloud

(eventually, I do read them aloud to my wife or a friend for feedback)

i then type them on my typewriter, using A5 paper

this prevents me from further rewriting and allows me to think about the relations between them

i don't separate the layout work from the effort to collect the poems along a narrative that weaves the main themes emerging from them:

i also use photocopies of 62 mm x 46 mm pictures that i took with my instant camera to illustrate the table of contents and aknowledgments:
