3rd Bed
As many as of you know, 3rd Bed recently folded, or has been in an indeterminate state of folding. Last weekend I went up to Providence to rescue what was left of the inventory from Brian Evenson’s cellar and these titles are now available and will be reissued through Calamari Press:
- back issues of 3rd Bed
- Motorman by David Ohle
- Stories in the Worst Way by Gary Lutz
- the false sun recordings by James Wagner
I guess you can think of Calamari Press as a literary no-kill shelter. Please help me keep these books alive.
I blogged about the trip/exchange here.
I also released my own Marsupial book into the wild.

Thou rockest. (Or rocketh if thee prefer.) Thank you for this rescue.
You are a saint, Derek. I feel better about the world with you in it, doing this and many other good things all around.
jesus christ, Derek. you are a fucking saint.
Derek White is a saint . . . with a goat.
Well, shucks, thanks everyone. It’s no skin off my chicken really. Praise is due to Vincent and the folks at 3rd Bed who brought us these fine publications to begin with. I wouldn’t be who I am without the legacy of 3rd Bed.
3rd Bed is utterly great. Thanks for doing this Derek.
