Broadsided, January 2012

What is Broadsided? Think of it as web-enhanced grassroots guerilla art. On the first of every month, a new art/poetry collaboration is posted for you to download. Free. Broadsided Press hopes you'll print it and post it in your local haunts— coffee shops, libraries, office doors, telephone poles, etc. That will make you a Vector. Vectors are posting around the world.  This plog is an eVector. Help us and Broadsided put literature and art on the streets.

Writing by Peter Kline, Steve Brightman & Jennifer Jabaily-Blackburn
