  • Annual Report 2008-2009 INTRODUCTION
    annual report 2008-2009 INTRODUCTION WE’RE PLEASED TO REPORT that despite a very challenging economic environment, Poets & Writers was able not only to maintain, but to improve and expand, its programs during the year ending June 30, 2009. Last year, we published six issues of Poets & Writers Magazine, which included special sections on independent presses, MFA programs, literary magazines, and writers retreats. We were especially proud to continue Agents & Editors, a highly popular fea- ture, which presented interviews with a number of top publishing professionals. We also launched Bullseye, a column that offers invaluable advice from literary magazine editors on submitting work to their journals. Circulation to the magazine remained steady at 55,000, and advertising revenue grew to over $1.2 million. Traffic to our Web site grew as well, to over 80,000 unique visitors per month. We continued to add new features to pw.org throughout the year, including Writers Recommend, in which authors talk about the books and art that inspire them to write. The site’s Speakeasy Message Forum continued to be a popular destination for authors to exchange advice and information on top- ics ranging from poetry contests to book contracts. And our databases of literary magazines and small presses received a high volume of visits from writers looking for places to submit their work. Our Information Services staff continued to provide a personal response to hundreds of e-mail and phone queries from writers, and we were pleased to be able to continue to offer this service free-of-charge. Staff also reviewed and approved applications from over 500 writers applying for listing in our Directory of Writers, which now includes over 8,000 poets, fiction writers, and creative nonfiction authors.

  • The Cambridge Companion to Twenty-First-Century American Poetry Edited by Timothy Yu Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-48209-7 — The Cambridge Companion to Twenty-First-Century American Poetry Edited by Timothy Yu Frontmatter More Information the cambridge companion to twenty-first-century american poetry This Companion shows that American poetry of the twenty-first-century, while having important continuities with the poetry of the previous century, takes place in new modes and contexts that require new critical paradigms. Offering a comprehensive introduction to studying the poetry of the new century, this collection highlights the new, multiple centers of gravity that characterize American poetry today. Chapters on African American, Asian American, Latinx, and Indigenous poetries respond to the centrality of issues of race and indigeneity in contemporary American discourse. Other chapters explore poetry and feminism, poetry and disability, and queer poetics. The environment, capit- alism, and war emerge as poetic preoccupations, alongside a range of styles from the spoken word to the avant-garde, and an examination of poetry’s place in the creative writing era. Timothy Yu is the author of Race and the Avant-Garde: Experimental and Asian American Poetry since 1965, the editor of Nests and Strangers: On Asian American Women Poets, and the author of a poetry collection, 100 Chinese Silences. He is Martha Meier Renk-Bascom Professor of Poetry and Professor of English and Asian American Studies at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University

    Poetry & Poetics at Buffalo a timeline -------11960-19901 Editors' Note ' , ----II. In Being Busted (New York: Stein and Day, 1969), Leslie Fiedler summed up the lively, diverse, and vociferous· Buffalo poetry scene of the sixties: We coulp not ... have on~ official journal to speak for all of us, or even a quite nonexistent consensus; yet we are all agreed that it is good there be ten or twelve or fifteen (no one knows for sure, being too busy at the mimeograph machine and the typewriter to count) little magazines ... in which students and younger faculty as have no access to more "established" publications can achieve print and, hopefully, a public. And between issues, the same writers ... chant their latest efforts at each other, in Readings organized in honor of some large cause, or in support of someone just busted for that cause, or just for the hell of it. (104) . We have found the evidence of those debates, those various causes and occasions, in the little magazines, noisy, passionate, insistent still in their boxes on the university's Poetry Collection shelves. And we recognize ourselves here as well, as thirty years later the printing and chanting and arguing continues, though the heat seems to have changed with the changing temperatures of the culture in general. Our effort has been to suggest the myriad activities that have made Buffalo, in the words of Ann Lauterbach, "Poetry City": hundreds of poets and poet-apprentices, hundreds of readings and workshops and festivals, hundreds of small publications and presses. And all of these activities producing material tor the archives-papers, tapes, books, mimeographed 'zines, broadsides, posters...

Green Lake was chosen as the top spot by 50% of respondents. • The Green Lake Conference Center was the most commonly cited specific venue with 29 mentions, followed by Monona Terrace with four. • Joy Harjo was suggested most often (17) for poets specifically recommended as the 75th keynote, followed by Billy Collins (16) and Naomi Shihab Nye (10). • Feedback on frequency of conferences was fairly evenly split, with the majority preferring two conferences each year in the spring and fall (28.3%). “Mix it up” and one per year in the summer were tied at 22%. • A majority of respondents (40.4%) want to continue holding conferences on Friday night and Saturday all-day. 27.6% would like to move to a full weekend, with 15.4% suggesting we mix it up. • When asked “what would motivate you to attend more conferences,” a majority (55.5%) said “a mix of national poets with regional favorites.” The next highest response was “other” at 32.9%.

  • Building a Core Poetry Collection 811: American Poetry
    KIT: BUILDING A CORE POETRY COLLECTION 811: AMERICAN POETRY Created for the Library as Incubator Project by Erinn Batykefer with many thanks to Professor Jesse Lee Kercheval of the UW-Madison Creative Writing Department, whose “Poetry Life List,” was the inspiration for this Kit. Collecting poetry can be daunting because there are so few mainstream review outlets that cover the genre in any meaningful way. There are ways around this, though, and none require a crash course in every school of American Poetry in living memory—a good thing for time-crunched librarians! This kit includes a long list of important American Poets that anyone interested in the genre will want to be familiar with, plus some important titles for each—a core collection. It begins by noting some key techniques and resources that will help you to build on this core collection and grow a wonderful 811 section year by year. CORE MAGAZINES Two suggestions for craft-based magazines: • Poets and Writers • AWP Writer’s Chronicle If your patrons are interested in poetry journals (also known as little magazines), you might subscribe to a few that represent different regions of the country / schools. Be forewarned: yearly subscriptions to little mags are expensive and folks are very opinionated about which are ‘good’; however, they often review new titles, which is a bonus, and they often have robust webpages and online content (including more reviews). A selection of heavy hitters: • Poetry Magazine (Chicago) | www.poetryfoundation.org/poetrymagazine o If you can only subscribe
