First Book from Star 82 Press: Déjà Vu Goes Both Ways

I am pleased to finally announce the winning manuscript from the chapbook contest is now an available  book! Star 82 Press presents Heikki Huotari's prose poems, Déjà Vu Goes Both Ways, with a wonderful color painting by Kay Bradner on the cover, and several lovely drypoints and ink drawings within.

As I read the manuscript, I was delighted by the twists of common phrases and found my mind expanding. Huotari playfully turns clichés on their heads while poking fun at what could be serious situations and relatable heartfelt emotions.

Star 82 Review Celebrates 50 Issues

We had a lively reading and small art exhibit after hours at CoRo coffee room to celebrate the publication of Star 82 Review 13.2, Summer Reading Anthology . Thanks to the prose writers included in the latest issue who read: Elaje López, Deepti Nalavade Mahule, Shira Musicant, and Kimberly Sweeney, and local poets: Sarah Kobrinsky, Daniel Ari, and Heikki Huotari. Local contributing artists to past issues who had wonderful art on display: Kay Bradner, Carole Jeung, Bryan Kring, Lauren Ari, David Johnson and Dianne Ayres. (You can look all of them up at star82review.com .) I've always wanted Star 82 to be a kind of oasis, a place of connection and renewal, perhaps a place to recharge in order to go forward, and it was a joy to celebrate in person.  Even though I have no staff, I cannot do it alone. Thank you for contributing, for reading, for supporting the magazine.
