Small Silences, my first poetry collection, is taking shape.

I've welcomed three new patrons so far in December. Who will be number four?

Patronage from my community of patrons on Patreon goes to help fund my writing, silence teaching, the founding of Silentium Press and Silentium Retreats, and to keep a roof over my head whilst doing all of this, my life's work of helping others find themselves in the depths of silence.

THE ALMS BOWL

Friends, it's time to pass the alms bowl.

I need your support. I'm funding not only a podcast, but the founding of a small press, Silentium Press, to publish my own and others works of contemplative poetry and nonfiction. I'm moving into a new home where that work will be done. Where I can serve others, including you.

Please consider becoming a patron, making a monthly contribution at http://patreon.com/silentiumstudio or making a donation at http://paypal.me/supportando

Small Silences, my own collection of contemplative poetry, is to be the first publication. There will be eBook, paperback and signed editions, and an audio book, along with a series of ltd and open edition prints.

In 2020, I will also publish a second book of my own, Echoes of Silence, a collection of transcriptions from my audio recordings. and Between Two Pines, a collection of poetry by my students. I am also to release a travel journal of a poet's travels in China and Japan, by one of the fellows of Poetry Dōjō, and Three White Clouds: Conversations Between Three Zen Poet Friends.

There will be more.

Thanks and love,
Andō
