Here is the latest on the progress of the binding of Water

As mentioned in a laid-in message in each new copy of Omphalos 9:

We sincerely regret two errors in the table of contents: Sharon Smith Abbott’s poem should be titled The Glass Negative and Deborah Smith’s poem should be titled Grief. Our apologies to both Sharon and Deborah.

As editor-in-chief of Omphalos I take full responsibility for these errors. Although we discovered them prior to sending out the issue, we unfortunately didn’t catch them before it went to press. As a result, I have arranged for two additional proofreaders to review the issues in the future.

Here’s to some sunshine in Maine as soon as possible!

Kind regards,
Geoff

Omphalos 9 just came off the press and it is an excellent issue complete with nine beautiful lithographs of Anne Bernard’s encaustics! For $5 you will get a very inspiring collection of fantastic writing and art. You can order a copy here. Or subscribe here. Please help support the artists!

If you made it here from our email we’d like to thank you for taking the time to browse a little bit. Please feel free to unsubscribe if you’d prefer not to hear from us in the future, but we can assure you that your email address goes nowhere but on our list.

Please Note:

Publication date for Water has been changed from August 1st to August 8th.

The Omphalos portion of our site is being remodeled this week so you may experience sudden changes while navigating there.

Even though the new site is up, there are still a handful of broken links and a few grammatical issues etc that we need to tidy up. We’ll have it all ready by Tuesday and I’ll send out an announcement then.

I believe I have this blog set up so that anyone can comment without having to login or join Wordpress. If anyone finds this to not be the case please bring it to my attention.

I plan on trying to push Omphalos into a small handful of other towns across the country this July, as well as a small handful of towns across Maine and New Hampshire. We’ll keep you posted on how that goes.

The author for our 2010 edition has not yet been chosen but likely will be before summer is over. I’ll mention it in a newsletter when the time comes.

As usual, please subscribe to Omphalos if you have $10! Thanks!

Website will likely be launched officially on June 9th. It is looking beautiful! I can’t wait to share it.

There is one copy of Water completed and displayed on the site in a slideshow. Also looking beautiful!

Stay tuned and keep an eye out for an email from us to announce the official launch of the site!!! You can manually let me know you’d like to join the mailing list by emailing me at info@ninepointpublishing.com. Just put subscribe in the subject line.
