If only there was time in life for what's really important. This looks like a superb class by great people. I can't recommend it highly enough.

    I took a letterpress class last year here in Chiacago to create a broadside for one of my chapbook poems- if people have a chance to try this, they definitely should. It's a wonderful experience!
