Title: Last Winter's Leaves
Description: Michael J. Solender’s collection launched our chapbook series, and it is also available as an eBook download in our distribution section.

Michael is the editor of the popular Not From Here, Are You? blog, as well as MiCrow and On The Wing. He is a refugee from the corporate world, now breathing freely, able to nurture the muse as a writer.

“Michael’s collection reveals his vulnerability, with characteristic candor. As a long time supporter and champion of this press, I very much wanted to launch the series with a collection by Michael because he maintains a special place here, as does this first chap in our series. Who better to kick things off? Michael embodies so much of what we hope for here: community, support, respect, and dedication to both the craft and creative environment. Lovingly dedicated to his wife Harriet, Last Winter’s Leaves is both triumph and tribute, a glimpse of persevering optimism.” -Lynn Alexander
