Aeolus House Chapbooks began as a personal sideline, when Phantelles, a collection of fan-shaped texts, was created and launched in conjunction with the “Phantelles” exhibit of painted fans and fan constructions by Holly Briesmaster and Janice Jackson at Pteros Gallery in Toronto in January 2003.

Since that time, the concept has evolved to include collections of poetry written by special friends, and published by a special arrangement with them. All copies of the 4 chapbooks published thus far belong to the authors and can be purchased from them. However, I have a few copies that can be ordered from me. I would add $1.00 to the price, for postage.

Eventually I want to expand this fledgling press, but until further notice, publication with Aeolus House will be by invitation only.
