...the (humble) website of Amanda Laughtland
Thanks for visiting my site. I'm a poet, publisher, and writing teacher in the Seattle area.
Postcards to Box 464, illustrated by Jen May and designed by my brother, Charlie Laughtland, was published by Bootstrap Productions. I've added a link with a PayPal button if you'd like to order a signed copy directly from me for $12 and free shipping: click here for more info, including reviews of the book.
Find samples from my postcards book (and many other poems) on my poems page.
Two shorter books of my poems are available for free online: Vital to Victory from NAP magazine and Take It from Ungovernable Press.
I also write nonfiction, and here are some links to published clips.
I'm proud to have published Collected Kona by Marcia Woodard in October of 2010. Collected Kona marks my transition with Teeny Tiny Press into professionally printed and bound publications, in addition to continuing to publish handmade zines and books.
I've taught at Edmonds Community College since 2004, and I'm faculty adviser to the college literary/arts magazine, Between the Lines. If you live in the Seattle area, you're welcome to submit your written and/or visual artwork to the magazine.
For recent bits of my writing, drop by my blog. For a little visual art, see my flickr page with images of collages and prints I've made.
Please email me for more info about any of the above or just to say hello.
