Michael Czarnecki
Michael Czarnecki of FootHills Publishing will be reading at Artcroft on April 16 from 1- 4 pm. This stop will be Day 6 in Michael’s US Route 62 Border to Border Tour 2006, which will begin in Niagara Falls, New York and wind down through Pennsylvania, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Arizona.
Michael is owner and operator of FootHills Publishing, a family affair that celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. From the About FootHills page:
FootHills Publishing was formed in 1986 for the purpose of getting into print the words of poets who found it hard to get their work out to the public other than at readings or in the occasional magazine. The first few books were published in conjunction with Great Elm Press, operated by Walt Franklin. Since then, FootHills Publishing has released more than 150 chapbooks or books.
We are a small family-run operation. I do the editorial work - Carolyn handles the book production and shipping and our two boys, Grayson (14) and Chapin (10), help with production. Grayson also assists with some design work. All of our books are now hand-stitched and we have received many compliments on the quality of the work, both in content and production.
Michael has brought many lovely poetry books into print, including my own My Will and Testament Is on the Desk and Lexington poet Ann Lederer’s Approaching Freeze. I can tell you that he’s a sweet publisher to work for.

If you’re looking for a good way to spend your Easter Sunday afternoon, why not drive out and meet Michael. Artcroft itself, sitting high atop its Nicholas County hills, is lovely this time of year.
