YELLOW SNOW
The Foundry's main written projects have
been the Yellow Snow Chapbooks. The Yellow
Snow Literary Group was begun as a "serious joke," a kind of humourous
rival to Black Ice Books, a publisher of some rather interesting material.
It was the perception among certain parties that the Black Ice folk took
themselves a bit too seriously, something frequently observed in the avant
garde art world. Much discussion took place and a course of action was arrived
at. On the night of a Black Ice signing and party at a local bookstore a
group of conspirators arrived with the first Yellow Snow chapbook in hand
and name tags sporting the moniker "Anon." A chilly reception
ensued and Yellow Snow was off and running. Black Ice, Yellow Snow, just a play on words, but it has provided an
avenue for many different creative ideas, and so has taken on a life of
its own, enduring long after the single event for which it was conceived.
Yellow Snow has produced nearly a score of chapbooks since its inception,
with more projects to come. What follows is a list of titles for every chapbook produced thus far,
even several done before Yellow Snow came into
being. To investigate further, please click on any title. Click here for
