There are many things you can do to help sustain small presses such as Bear Star. For starters, try to avoid shopping the chains, which are far less likely than independent bookstores to champion new writers and small presses. Give books as gifts. Spread word of our annual competition to other poets. Send us a few stamps. It all helps!
