Côla's latest collection of poetry is a long poem entitled 'Millennium Blues,' and is scheduled to be released in the Fall of 2007.

Bedrock Press has released Côla's later writings, as well as music by Deadpan Rookie, Uncle Jesse and the Jesse's, has reprinted Antler's 'Factory' poem, as well as two essays by Penny Rimbaud, 'Freedom is such a big word,' and 'The Conveniences of Philosophy' in a cheap version based off of the Bracketpress letterpress editions.

Enôla currently resides in the bowels of South-Western Ontario.
