The Association of Writers and Writing Programs (AWP) comes to town next week, bringing with it a variety of writers, from international bestsellers like keynote speaker Michael Chabon to amateur poets working on their first collections. Six local presses, Fast Forward Press, Tarpaulin Sky, Fact-Simile, Monkey Puzzle Press, Zero Ducats, and Bombay Gin, are using the opportunity to put together a reading of unique and eloquent readers at the Denver jazz club, Dazzle, on Thursday, April 8th.


Fast Forward Press, a small independent press based in Denver, is dedicated to publishing flash fiction and will release its third collection in June. Fact-Simile Editions is a small independent publisher of mostly handmade books and book-objects, using recycled and reclaimed materials to create distinctive artifacts of literature. Boulder-based Monkey Puzzle Press is an independent trade publisher focusing on books from both emerging and established writers including a biannual literary arts journal. Bombay Gin is the literary journal of the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics, and Tarpaulin Sky, founded in 2002 as an online literary journal, focuses on cross-genre / trans-genre / hybrid forms as well as innovative poetry and prose.
