Heron Sea, Short Poems of the Chesapeake Bay, is a startlingly moving look into the heart of the poet and the incomparable beauty of the Chesapeake Bay. Author M. Kei, editor of the critically acclaimed 'Fire Pearls,' issues his first collection of poetry, focussing on the Chesapeake Bay area. Composed while crewing aboard one of the last skipjacks on the bay, and living and working on the Bay's shores, each poem is a loving portrait of life and loss at the Head of the Bay.

Although he had made his short-short poems available as free downloads, Arnzen felt that readers should pay something for digital copies of the longer works in 100 Jolts. Recalling how early filmmakers distributed their work in Nickelodeons, Arnzen devised a delivery system called the ‘Sickolodeon’, through which readers could pay to access individual stories. At the heart of this plan was an Internet company called BitPass.com.
