This mighty micropress produced a Griffin longlister before 10 years of existence. KFB is phenomenal. And fun. Let's celebrate her with the 10th anniversary season she deserves.

@knifeforkbook.bsky.social should get a prize simply for making the longlist for the Griffin Poetry Prize. A phenomenal achievement for any press, let alone a young micropress. Get your copy of Dale Martin Smith's stunning "The Size of Paradise" and celebrate #canpoetry on the world stage.
