In the summer of 2014, I met Kevin Bertolero at a writing conference in upstate New York. As two of very few millennials at this particular conference, we immediately bonded over internet-related nonsense. This "nonsense" comprised DIY presses, independent literature, Twitter geniuses, and, of course, memes. Bertolero started telling me about his own idea for a press: a Syracuse-based organization designed to support local writers in upstate New York's independent poetry communities.
