The Colrain Poetry Manuscript program
The Colrain Poetry Manuscript Intensive is a one-of-a-kind, total immersion weekend designed for poets with book-length manuscripts looking for a publisher. The Intensive is small (6-8), and poets work closely with either Jeffrey Levine (Tupelo Press) or Martha Rhodes (Four Way Books) along with founder Joan Houlihan. The Intensive is held at the beautiful Brandt House in Greenfield, Mass.
