Futurepoem at AWP 2023

March 23, 2023

Futurepoem was thrilled to attend this year's AWP 2023 in Seattle, WA!

It was such a joy to meet everyone who came by our table at the bookfair where we had special discounts on select Futurepoem titles, merch, and an excluive print catalog.

On Sat. March 11th, we had book signings with Futurepoem authors Jessica Laser and Manuel Paul Lopez:

Jessica Laser signing copies of her most recent collection PLANET DRILL (Futurepoem, 2022)

Manuel Paul Lopez signing copies of Nerve Curriculum (Futurepoem, 2023), available to order now!

On Friday evening, we joined friends at Switchback, Action, VOLT, Jellyfish, Boa, & Everybody for an evening of poetry from a line-up of small press authors at an off-site reading at Bad Bar in Seattle. With introductions by Futurepoem's own Rowan Waters, Jessica Laser and Manuel Paul Lopez each gave stunning readings from their newest releases, along with readings from Futurepoem staff Zoe Tuck and Ahana Ganguly.
