Subscriptions to The Honest Pint now available!

Tavern Friends,
 
Back in October, we unveiled plans for The Honest Pint, our subscription series edited by Matthew Dickman. It's now in full swing, with subscriptions available through the updated page on our website!

The Honest Pint is an ongoing series of brief prose pieces written by contemporary poets about the work of other poets. Each month starting in January 2013, subscribers will receive an envelope containing some form of original printed matter—an expository essay, a cartoon strip, a review, or an interview, for example—in which a poet responds to a poem of his or her choice.

These epistolary experiments will come to your mailbox from the likes of Albert Goldbarth, Matthew Zapruder, and Diane Wakoski, among others. But don't expect this kind of disclosure from us for long—the identity of each month's sender will remain a mystery until you break the envelope's seal.
 
We hope you're as excited as we are. Cheers!
