"bottle rockets is hip!"
—Lawson Inada


"Remarkably clear photo reproductions; the layout masterfully combines haiku composed on 3 lines, 1 line and more creative free-style art forms with other short verses . . . ."
—David McMurray,
Asahi Shimbun/International Herald Tribune
"A careful selection of good poems . . . but it is bottle rockets' quest for the unexpected that beguiles." --Beverley George, Editor of Yellow Moon

Issue #23 of bottle rockets will be out in a couple of weeks. Order yours now while we still have copies!  
(Now reviewing submissions for issue #24.)


Important Notice for International Subscribers.

Due to postal increases the price for International subscriptions has just been raised by bottle rockets press. This increase will take place immediately--as of today 7-14-10. At this point the increase only pertains to international subscriptions (minus Canada & Mexico).

Immediate International renewals can still receive the previous rate for one month (8-14-10) then it will default to the new current rate. 

We are not happy about this decision, but it is the only way to meet our expenses as printing and postage continually increase.  As long as we stay out of the red, we will go on. Thank you for your understanding.  Please e-mail editor Stanford M. Forrester if you have any questions.
