Bootstrap Productions is a 501(c)(3), nonprofit collaborative arts and literary organization primarily known for its publishing arm, Bootstrap Press, which publishes contemporary experimental writing. Begun in Boulder, Colorado in the winter of 1999, Bootstrap Productions originally formed as a parent organization combining Bootstrap Press, founded by Ryan Gallagher and Derek Fenner, and The @tached Document, a literary arts journal begun by Jeff Chester, Derek Fenner, and Todd McCarthy.

[edit] Beginnings

Bootstrap Productions was founded by Derek Fenner and Jeff Chester in the Winter of 1999 in a North Broadway warehouse in Boulder, Colorado. Originally, Bootstrap was a reaction on Derek and Jeff’s part to “start a community of writers and artists of our own and not to buy into the pre-existing sects, or communities surrounding us in Boulder at that time.”[1] While Derek was finishing his MFA at Naropa University’s Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics, while Jeff worked at the Bookend Café adjoining the Boulder Bookstore [1] in downtown Boulder. After a number of beer-filled brainstorming sessions at the down-the-street Bustop Gentlemen's Club, a number of scattered manifestos coalesced into The (then unnamed) @tached Document.

The Letter: (4/16/00)

"Derek, Check the attached document out. Think about wacky 'marketing' campaigns with cartoons or silly photo shoots that hype Bootstrap. I know it sounds goofy, but it’s a great way to get noticed and would be damn fun to be a part of. Also—I didn’t think about it ‘til now but what about 'The Attached Document” as a name????'"[2] —Jeff Chester.

The idea for the @tached Document was hashed out in a letter from Jeff Chester to Derek Fenner in the Spring of 2000. Jeff was working at NetLibrary [2] in Boulder, Colorado, while Derek taught creative writing for the California Youth Authority in a maximum-security juvenile facility outside of Sacramento, California. After nine months in California, Derek returned to Boulder and immediately moved into a tent in Jeff’s backyard. Soon after, Todd McCarthy became involved in Bootstrap Productions. The three of them teamed up and co-edited The @tached Document #1 in the late spring of 2001. Highlights of the first issue include Jerome Rothenberg translations of Picasso as well as poems by Lisa Jarnot, Thalia Field, Kevin Killian, Jeni Olin, Anselm Berrigan, among others.

[edit] Bootstrap Press

While work on The @tached Document proceeded, Derek Fenner and Ryan Gallagher made plans to start Bootstrap Press in Ryan’s cabin outside of Nederland, Colorado. Ryan, a fellow Naropa MFA student, had recently finished translating the first 60 poems of Catullus. As a practice run “to learn the book printing process,”[3] Bootstrap published Ryan’s Gaius Valerius Catullus: Blues from Ancient Rome in the fall of 2000. These Catullus translations were quickly follow up by Big Ray’s Six Pack of Poetics, a staple-bound chapbook collaboration series pairing artists and with emerging writers, as well as Steven Taylor’s first book of poems, Loveland, in the Summer of 2001.

[edit] 2002 — Present

Since 2002, Bootstrap Productions has been based in Lowell, Massachusetts. Under the care of Derek Fenner and Ryan Gallagher, Bootstrap Productions has published 8 books, 3 anthologies, 5 chapbooks, and 2 CDs in the past six years.
