Kitchen Sink Press

Sorry, Caryl, not for us. We specialize in cartoonists, but not poetry, even by Bukowski. Nor our realm. Have you tried Black Sparrow Press?  —Denis

Thank you for contacting me. However, this project, while interesting, doesn’t lie within our strengths.
We could not do it justice. The best of luck to you in finding it a proper home!

Well, maybe the mainstream publishers aren’t the right venue anyway.
Keep promoting your work as I’m sure some right-minded publisher will see the excellence in your stuff. But do make sure you send copies to Harvey Pekar.
He always needs artists for his AMERICAN SPLENDOR comics series and I suspect you’re perfect for his work…
Your stuff is [...]

Ron Turner, Publisher last gasp

Just had a look.  I have been kicking around a bunch of ideas with
frieds of Bukowski for years.
About a comic book of some of the stories that the artists or writers
had with the master. Some of the people were George DiCaprio (father of Leonardo) and Spain
Rodriguez (zap comix), who had wonderful stories.  I really like [...]

Dominique Deruddere, film director:

Yes, I’ve got your drawings, but I have been abroad and there wasn’t any time to look at them.
I did that right now and it looks very good.
It reminds me a somewhat of Crumb, who has also illustrated Hank’s work, I think.

Eveline van Dijck, documentary maker:

“Amazing that you got permission to do your thing with Bukowski’s work. I wonder how the publisher will react.
And yes, it’s rough work and intrigueing. It’s life itself.  Perhaps that’s why you, because of this and your own experiences, are so fit for this job.
Thank you for sharing this with me, I like to keep [...]
