More Dec 2
Addition, because, as someone pointed out, I don’t describe where I am at all:
Expozine is a massive zine and small press fair held in Montreal every year. I went to one once nearly ten years ago, in 2014, when it was held in the basement of the church at Laurier and St-Laurent—I forget the name. They seem to like holding it in churches, because it’s in a church again this year. St-Arsene. The name reminds me of Arsene Lupin.
Vast space, billowing around us all: you come in from the snow (by Sunday, there was snow), shake yourself dry as you can in a sort of vestibule, and then pass the “bar” into that main space. Rows and rows of tables, lined with books and indie artwork. It has quite an energy. So much creation, all together in one place.
I was shameless, and handed cards out everywhere.
One of the organizers, when I talked to him, complained that it wasn't enough space. They had to fight to even use the stage.
I can see that. So smushed in such a small area, it could've expanded almost to an infinity. What's more infinite than art?

I was at Expozine last weekend, where Boum guided me through the treacherous world of sitting at a table and selling Stuff. It’s a good thing she was there to teach me things or I would definitely have been eaten by the wolves (I was so clueless, I didn’t even know there would be hungry wolves).
The experience has also taught me many things about humans and the things they do when there is a table full of books for sale in front of them.

COLLAGE::BOOKS, a symposium on the role of the book in collage takes place October 4th, 2019 in Montreal. DETAILS
BOOK AS AN EXTENSION OF PRACTICE
Chris Maddox
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Chris Maddox will talk about bookmaking as an extension of practice. His presentation will focus on "America, Alien Nation", an ongoing group of altered books and self-published books and collage work from the "Palimpsests" project he began in 2016. Maddox’s book and print works have been acquired by collections at the Living National Treasure Museum, Tokyo; the Santa Reparata International School of Art, Florence; the Boston Athenaeum; the New York Public Library; and numerous other rare book and special collections. MORE
*****************************
Kolaj Magazine, a full colour, print magazine, exists to show how the world of collage is rich, layered, and thick with complexity. By remixing history and culture, collage artists forge new thinking. To understand collage is to reshape one’s thinking of art history and redefine the canon of visual culture that informs the present.

So turns out, rather last minute, that I'll be tabling at this year's Expozine in Montreal! I won't have any new zines or comics or anything major like that, but there will still be plenty of exclusive goodies like prints, stickers, original drawings (like this one) and more. Hope to see ya there!

January 8, 2024
A week since my last entry. Well, that’s probably healthy. Not like I haven’t been working on this, though—for that week, most of which was taken up by 2-9:30 evening shifts, I was working on the Montreal content. Wake up, write, go to work, come home, write, go to sleep, wake up, write… etc. I got sick of it and needed to step away. Now I can take steps back again.
Since yesterday have started thinking about my short story collection as a whole work, too. It is absurd, oversized and pretentious. I want to put a quote from Journey to the End of Night in as an epigraph, and it is so long that I doubt anyone would consider publishing it as a debut work. On top of that, most of the stories don’t even make conventional sense. But it’s my work, the way I want it, and that makes me happy.
What else did I do? I did do a couple other things.
Last night, went to Bimini’s for a friends birthday, last minute. I abandoned a lamb chop and a bottle of wine, because it was his birthday and I hadn’t seen him for ages. Getting there was a trial—I hate number seven bus, I hate it passionately, and no further comment—and the experience I had with the establishment itself was lukewarm figuratively and literally, but it was good to see Alex. We went to the Woodstove Festival in Cumberland together in 2022. We set up a little table on a street corner and sold my book, gave out free coffee. A wonderful experience, that. He once did an illustration to go with a poem I got published in an online journal. It will always be good to see Alex.
Today, the weather got truly miserable. It snowed a little bit in the morning, although it did not stick. The rest of the day was simply miserably cold. I was on till at work the first half of the day, and my exterminates went numb from being so close to the door. I had been going to have salad for lunch, but I caved and got Chinese BBQ on rice because I needed to eat something hot. The rain had mostly slowed by the time I finished, and was on my way to have dinner with Aby at Nuba in Kits. It was even pleasant, if chilly, to walk from the 99 stop at MacDonald to the restaurant at Balaclava. Food was fantastic; conversation was fantastic—I was a bit sleepy, especially at first (waking up at seven after a week of evening shifts that half force you to sleep in until nine is not fun), but I perked up with tea and lamb kebab in me. Always good to see Aby.
Got home, looked at narrowboats to rent, with grandpa. The two of us are going to England and going about the canals later this year.
Now I’m here. It’s 11:30 and I’m too tired to be writing. I have said that before: this is often when I do end up getting this done. I’ve written it for the sake of writing it. A written word is never wasted.
I have mixed feelings about all the Montreal stuff I counterfeited over the last week—it was written so long after it happened, it isn’t real in the same way this is. I can sense the difference in timbre. But I had (have) the gut feeling that it was important to get it down when it was still fresh enough that it could be counterfeited at all. I’m proud of the work. Maybe I’ll do something more with it one day. Maybe if I go to Expozine another time and have a table, I’ll self-publish it as a book—sell people a book about Expozine at Expozine, how does that sound.
I’ve written enough of it that there are no true gaps left. The last couple of days need to be fleshed out, but something is there of them. A full continuity of events, and I feel confident enough that I could come back to it and finish the work later without much important being forgotten. There’s also the entry for the 9th, when I saw Cali, that I want as sort of an epilogue. That one will probably involve more artifice. Too soon to think about it—I want to spend time with other projects for now.

I’m going to be at Expozine this year! I’ll have some of my books and chapbooks for sale today, Saturday the 19th only. I’m also thrilled to share that I will have copies of new homemade zines which are sneak peeks of my ongoing full-length book project inspired by Beaver Hall Group painter, Anne Savage. Can’t wait to share my new work with you all and hope to see some friendly faces there! #gregsantos #gregsantospoetry #expozine2022 #expozine #annegeorgeandme (at Église Saint-Arsène) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClJd_tOrzj84_DitahP_xR1zbv4W0b5CCRznd00/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So i dare say, FBDM/MCAF is the best Canadian comics festival now! Least to me! I'm biased but my sales were comparable to those I've had at TCAF and VanCAF, the setting was pretty cool, lovely in the sun, and i could still walk home at night. I didn't take trunk loads but sold out of some of my books, about 6 Dream Life, 5 of each Revolver, and 8 Therefore Repents. Not to mention some copies of @seqmagazine too. And then a tone of prints too. As always we often sell more prints than books at book fairs? 🤷♂️ These are the books i got, didn't really browse as i was tabling solo. So missed out on lots no doubt. But i was sitting next to @conundrumpress and missed getting a copy of the soon to be scarce 'The Palace of Champions' by the recently deceased Pope of Montreal comixs Valium, from Andy at Expozine. So snagged one from him this time for sure. And then one of my table neighbors to the right was J.Burello ( @biginsanehappy ), one of my past comics class students syn studio! And not the only one at the show to exhibiting either! I grabbed his last copy of 'The Book of Barb' the first few pages of which he did in our classes. I'm (at Festival BD de Montréal (FBDM)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeNNrIvMcvD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
