Summer Manuscript Class – Sign Up Now!
Are you trying to put together a first collection of poems, or is your book manuscript languishing in a drawer? Do you need some feedback? Are you ready to spend some time and energy getting it into shape for the fall submission deadlines?
Then sign up for my poetry manuscript summer class, eight weeks for $250, where I’ll give you my feedback on your poetry book manuscript, plus you’ll get feedback from your classmates (and I have some great poets signed up already.) We’ll have weekly sessions with discussions and exercises on subjects like organization, theme, tone, and, of course, we’ll talk about publishing. We’ll even have visiting guests to provide advice and encouragement. Send me an e-mail at Jeannine.gailey@live.com. I’m looking to start the class July 1, and I only have space for one or two more poets!

Jeannine Hall Gailey served as the second Poet Laureate of Redmond, Washington and the author of Becoming the Villainess, She Returns to the Floating World, Unexplained Fevers, The Robot Scientist’s Daughter, and winner of the Moon City Press Book Prize and SFPA’s Elgin Award, Field Guide to the End of the World. Her latest, Flare, Corona from BOA Editions, was a finalist for the Washington State Book Award. She’s also the author of PR for Poets, a Guidebook to Publicity and Marketing. Her work has been featured on NPR’s The Writer’s Almanac, Verse Daily and The Year’s Best Fantasy and Horror. Her poems have appeared in The American Poetry Review, Poetry, and JAMA.
