Update #2: TRIP = SUCCESS
Hello Everyone,
Thank you for your support of our trip and helping us reach our goal. Because of you, we were able to spend the last four days in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, seeing some great readings, meeting some excellent writers, reading our work, and enjoying a wonderful city. We will continue to update you as we post blog entries about the trip and other related things.
This week, we will be packaging and sending out the rewards. For those of you that live around us, we'll probably just deliver your stuff right to you. The chapbooks and broadsides look great, and the videos came out well. We're excited to share them with you.
Thanks again,
Tyler, Jeremy, Elysia, and Layne

Tyler Gobble is stoked about something. He shouts around the web, like at his blog, like as a contributor at Vouched Online, like in his Smalldoggies Magazine column. He also helps out with The Collagist. Send him a message: no one likes to be stoked alone.
Layne Ransom remembers the Titans. She is currently a poetry editor for The Broken Plate and once ran over a felled tree with a ’97 Oldsmobile Cutlass. Her things have been spotted in decomP, vis a tergo, amphibi.us, and other places. You look nice today.
Things were hard at the horse farm/nuclear power plant, for Jeremy Bauer. His mother eventually had five arms, not out of mutation from all substandard conditions, but out of necessity. His father fused with three horses, and though he held the glory of being the first tricentaur in existence, he was in a great deal of pain all 107 years of his black-maned life. The cloud of Jeremy Bauer worked to help support his melting family and eventually made it to Ball State University, where he studied creative writing. He has published poetry and nonfiction in The Broken Plate and his molecules blog at ohbabyohman.blogspot.com. The family smiles often.
Elysia Smith is the lead fiction editor for The Broken Plate. Her work has recently appeared in elimae. She has traveled many places in her life but few have affected her as much as the city of New Orleans. She loves tattoos, cats, and boys who wear hats well.
I'm trying to figure out how to get my poem and I guess it went to Layne but when I tried to reply with what information I needed I got a no-reply response back from the email. Please let me know how to obtain my gift for my donation.
