Hester Glock collaborated with Paul H. on a sound project in 2007.

Paul used the name when setting up his first ever website, and the name has stuck with creative things he has subsequently been involved with since.

Sarer and Paul are both artists and poets, amongst other things, and have been running the press since 2012-ish.

They began with an old b & w laser printer, hand-making pamphlets

Then they started to use print-on-demand services, though not always for every publication.

Hesterglock publish mostly experimental poetry, visual poetry, Poem Bruti-ish work as well as other artistic projects.

Hesterglock acknowledges the simple fact that we learn through mistakes.

Hesterglock continue to make mistakes.

Long may that continue.

Hesterglock gratefully acknowledge individuals who have supported their work over the past 13 years or so, whether that be buying a book, attending an event, or supporting us through their deeds and/or actions.

Thank you

Paul & Sarer
