The More You Tighten Your Grip… by derek beaulieu

Originally published in Do It Wrong: How to Be a Poet In the Twenty-First Century, this essay on creative ownership encourages writers to abandon authority over their ideas and words in favour of letting poems, stories, essays, etc. take on a life of their own in the hands of readers.

Printed using a Gestetner 105 (once owned by derek beaulieu, circa 2006) on Mohawk Superfine White Smooth paper with newsprint flyleaves and hand-sewn into covers made from recycled folders.
