How to Order & Publish Your Poetry Collection
Part lecture and part workshop, this class gives you a hands-on approach to finding the best order for your manuscript to keep readers (and contest judges) hooked. Topics include why editors care about poem order, publishing industry insight, recent trends in literary awards, and more. Open to everyone interested in publishing a poetry book or chapbook, whether you are just starting and are curious about the process or have a completed manuscript you are ready to submit.
