#wordsandthoughts

बाँधिएको, धाकिएको आकाशको टूक्रा...

Lets try to be whole and do everything whole-heartedly so we are not stuck halfway through or feel half alive. Lets just try.

I wrote a book of poetry. Start Here is a collection of single line and one word poems that I composed one by one while walking and running between August and October. The lines were written individually but there is a similar underlying feeling to them as a whole including thoughts on longing, searching, memory, and the ocean. They can be read as individual poems, as one poem, or as a kind of story. 

Ever since I wrote my thesis last year, I have been thinking about writing and words in a different way and have become very interested in creating works that use thoughts and words as materials. This thin volume felt natural to make and, though I’m a bit nervous to put it out in the world, I am very excited to share it.  I have included a detail of two pages here but will keep the rest quiet so that anyone who purchases the book will be surprised. 

So, yes, it is for sale for $25 and can be found on my Etsy drawing and works- on-paper shop, AmyTavernDrawing. Each book will be individually printed and the process will take about three weeks. Expediting is possible. Please email  me at [email protected] or convo me via Etsy for details. Each book will be signed, too. 

The paperback book measures 8 x 5 x 1/8 in. and has 36 pages.
