108  <h2>About</h2>
109  <article>
110    <p>Birds, LLC is a small independent editor-run poetry press born out of friendship and a collective spirit of collaboration, possibility, and care, and in direct opposition to the Contest Industrial Complex of capital P poetry. Specializing in close author relationships, Birds, LLC believes that great books are a collaboration of editors and authors. Birds, LLC supports readings, events, audiobooks, videos, podcasts, and class visits for its authors, believing that poetry demands a human voice to read it and an audience to receive it.</p>

116            <article>
117          <blockquote>
118        <p>Birds, LLC are like the pinnacle of enthusiasm for contemporary young poet's full-length books, and of reinventing self-publishing.</p>
119<p>While essentially Birds, LLC is about the singular poet's collection, they always emphasize a collaboration of editors and authors. I've never quite felt so warm and fuzzy about a press. Their gigantic spirit and love of poetry and poets is infectious.</p>
