The Coming of Jarbina, Reviewed by Warren Dean Fulton
"Amelia Does & Tom Prime have created a work that is an undulating kaleidoscopic blending of the likes of Lewis & Jim Carroll, of Dr. Seuss & Dr. Timothy Leary, of Aesop & Agatha Christie, of Beatrix Potter & Ambrose Bierce. Their imaginative realm requires you reading this book aloud to yourself, or to a close group of likewise weirdo friends. I don’t want to give away any spoilers, only to say you will be surprised at the turning of each page, and turn each page in anticipation you will. We done Amelia & Tom."
-Warren Dean Fulton, 2021
"I'm a big fan of Amelia's video work. Especially those in which she herself performs"
-Stuart Ross, 2020, on our collaboration Threefold (video)
"There is an odd straightforwardness to this collection that is delightfully bent, and often moving in more than one direction simultaneously. Her poems move easily from the short lyric to the short prose poem, each propelled by a particular kind of narrative that might bend or twist, or break off at the end."
- Rob McLennan, 2019, on Amsterdam: The ABBA Version (chapbook)
"Amelia Does depicts the moment after a heavy rainfall when the world is again undiscovered and open to transcendental possibilities, the magically real."
-Carl Christian Abrahamsen, 2018

"This chapbook arrived in the mail this week — The Yellow Piano, by Amelia Does. Just eight pages long but crammed with nearly a dozen very cool and often surreal and sometimes rude poems and stories. I love it. I look forward to more from Amelia!"

"Working with Amelia has been a tremendous fortune. I've had my first art gallery showing with her help which would not have happened. The support, insights and concrete advice, she knows how to plan events effectively. I felt at ease all the time while getting the gallery dates and planning into motion and most of all she listens in collaborating which is a rare asset to anyone who wants projects completed and done correctly in a timely manner. I offer my highest recommendation"
