His other publication of note was a Small press mimeo magazine: Throb (1971), publishing Al Masarik, Susan Fromberg Schaeffer, Gerald Locklin, Joel Deutsch, and 'Charles Bukowski answers 10 easy questions'.

Writing[]

"Nettelbeck's world (and his picture may be chillingly accurate) is pierced with holes through which we are continually in danger of dropping, or being sucked." -Robert Peters

In the early 1970s he began work on a long poem that was published in 1979, Bug Death. Bug Death was created using cut-up and collage texts combined with original writing.
