White Horses Elsewhere

Friday, July 30th, 2010

Doug and White Horses got plugged and interviewed the other day for a site called Thoughts in Progress. Read to exist. Also worth noting that White Horses is 15% off until August 13th if you enter the code: BEACHREAD305 at checkout. That is all. Here is the interview

“I think WHITE HORSES was my attempt to create something that might possibly make all these bad things better. Like I could weave a safety net out of words. Like I might be able to save what little I still had. I think all these desperate factors together created a sort of poetry.” -Doug

White Horses Exists

Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

You may now begin to normally purchase copies of White Horses by Douglas W. Milliken at the very regular price of $12. OR you can go check it out from the Portland Room of the Portland Public Library if you are opposed to the concept of ownership.

Last Day to Pre-Order White Horses

Monday, May 24th, 2010


Only 24 hours left to pre-order White Horses by Douglas W Milliken from NaDA. Order today and get it for cheaper AND better (personally stamped, signed, written, and drawn). After tomorrow it will be available for the regular $12 from Lulu.

Pre-Order White Horses. I should also mention that it is the author’s (pictured above) birthday today.

(NOTE: That white dot smaller than the “.” represents the Big Six)
This image I drew up yesterday is not accurate, but illustrative. It’s based on cobbled old data from a number of different sources, but the generality of the image hold that a very small percentage of the companies in the industry (between 6 and 10) rake in 90% of the profits. The small publishers, which make up 99% of the bulk are left with about half of that remaining 10%.

Ten days remain to NOT Die Young Yet

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010


Ten days left to commission a story for NaDA’s upcoming collection of fiction by Jacob Cholak, Didn’t Die Young Yet. We’ve been soliciting stories from (friends and) strangers to compile into a book of shorts. Jake is one of the most legitimately brilliant and insane people I have the pleasure of knowing first hand. I highly HIGHLY recommend you take this opportunity to enable some fiction.

White Horses by Douglas W. Milliken

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

A new book launch from NaDA and Douglas W. Milliken. I am exceptionally proud to be putting this out. It is a fantastic collection of writing that would have otherwise been lost to the closets of history. Reads savage and tender, like soft hands around your throat. Pre-order and help us raise money to smuggle free copies into stores around the country perpetuating non-illegal and semi-divergent behavior. Pre-Order White Horses

sMeSs

Thursday, March 18th, 2010

SMeSs burps text messages to (un)known targets un(knowingly). The penultimate Surrealist Act (according to Niels Bohr) is walking out of the shower and texting your girlfriend in the middle of the night. This program misses the mark by far. It will blind a cat however, and it puts the keys to probable chaos in the hands of anonymous gentlemen and wildwomen. Must enlist to receive arms.

eMaim

Monday, March 15th, 2010

eMAIM fires off blind and random e-mails to any one of a collection of (somewhat) willing victims. The ultimate surrealist act (according to Breton) is walking out into the street with a gun and firing at random. This is a less dire implementation of the same intent. Send poetry to who knows who. You’ll never get it back. You’ll never hear of it again. Get it out of your life and into someone else’s.
