"While serving at a church in 2005 I began to dream about publishing an anthology of poetry written by Lutherans. After personally contacting 28 Lutheran colleges, 8 Lutheran seminaries, and almost 8,000 Lutheran congregations, the poetry submissions poured in by the hundreds, making my dream a reality.

20th Century PowWow Playland
Historian, visual artist and poet rolled into one, Mihku Paul tells lively stories of Maliseet heroes throughout the millennia; vividly maps a territory encompassing old canoe routes and aunties' work tables; and sings in every register from the mythic to the modern.

Paul joins the ranks of other important Wabanaki poets--Alice Azure, Carol Bachofner, Joseph Bruchac, Carol Dana, and Cheryl Savageau--dedicated to preserving and updating their literary traditions. - Siobhan Senier, University of New Hampshire
The Woman and the Kiwakw
This bilingual version of an ancient tale, written in both Abenaki and English , exemplifies the role monster stories have played in Algonquin cultures. It not only points out the dangers that life confronts us with, it also reminds us of the importance of bravery, a keen intellect and the healing powers of family and simple kindness.
