You may have noticed a down turn in posting lately, and that's because principal instagram / media user Phillip Trey has been on vacation! His mother took him on a whirlwind literary, castle, and palace tour in the United Kingdom. Here's a pic of him carrying his own @backwordspress tote in the Charles Dickens house museum in London. Our totes have shown up over the last 2.5 weeks in various literary legends sites like Jane Austen's home, Rudyard Kipling's, Vita Sackville Wests, Virginia Woolfs, and several key Shakespeare locations, just to name a few. More pictures to come! #backwordspress #totes #screenprinting #poetryinfashion #poetryontheroad #travel #charlesdickens #poetry #poetsofinstagram (at The Charles Dickens Museum)

Sometimes we like to look back on where we've been, remember who we are, and look forward to what's next. This was a great reminder of that! We've gone through some changes, but overall, our core mission remains the same: to put new poetry out into the world in a unique and engaging way. #backwordspress #poetryinfashion #poetry #screenprinting #smallpress #publishing #lookingback #memories #poetrycommunity #blog (at Portland, Oregon)

"Writing, if nothing else, is a bridge between two people, a bridge made of language. And language belongs to all of us. If I enjoy a poem, that just means I am recognizing within it something of myself, something I must already possess. Therefore, to love a poem is to love a part of myself revealed to me by another person…" --Ocean Vuong We just love poet @oceanvuong !!
