I STOOD UP AND SAID YEAH


By Rachel Lois

My piece for this new zine – launched today online, as well as in and around Yorkshire - is titled RE-TYPE (500 words) and responds to the zine’s invitation to write 500 words on the theme of DIY. RE-TYPE (500 words) is a 500 word excerpt of Charles Olson’s 1951 text Projective Verse re-typed by myself; as tribute, as research, as labour (WORK, TRY, HARD).


The whole zine can be downloaded and viewed here

RE-TYPE (500 words) is also a pre-cursor to a fuller examination of this particular text in WRITING (the) SPACE 19 May at Wild Pansy Press, Leeds.
