Hot Air Press

top1.jpgLong time friend, Slackerstyle affiliate, and literary juggernaut Luc Rioual has embarked on his newest project. Hot Air Press has launched as Rioual’s “…attempt at destroying the unsatisfying equilibrium. A vessel for the release of artistic and literary endeavors.” Anyone who has followed posts here or followed Rioual’s young career as a modern day poet and artist on their own knows his ability to capture the emotion of youth.

He has now turned that creative drive into a pressing company which will be responsible for all future releases. We can look forward to many new releases from him and special guests. His newest release is a limited run of Hot Air Press t-shirts. I have already pre-ordered mine haha, room on the list is scarce so if you are going to make a move do it quickly!

Rioual will no doubt make a profound impact on literature as time rolls on. Now is your chance to be apart of something at the very beginning. Give yourself a chance, give him a chance and check out some of his work. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Can you believe it?

So remember that lit mag I was working on months ago? Well is like almost done… I really can’t believe that I am finished. After some editing and removing poems about things and people no longer relevant I added Matt’s work and made something that was sluggish and bland into something that really is going to be great.

I have a nice mixture of poetry that is about my past, my past relationships, and my future… where I am now. I think once I go over it a few more times and really decide to decide I will start handing them out and passing them along.

I will say that Matt’s work is phenomenal. I think he really has a grasp on where he’s been and where he’s going. I truly anticipate everyone’s comments on all aspects of what I’m gonna put out. I am nervous because I never let anyone read my REAL poetry. I dated a girl for ages and even she didn’t know I wrote so much while I was by myself.

Anyway, it all catches up eventually. Look out soon!
