where to publish your work

...for example... these two writers are doing some interesting innovative writing; one idea is to look at writers you like and see where they've published work:

Danielle Dutton is the author of Attempts at a Life and S P R A W L, which was shortlisted for the Believer Book Award. Her fiction has appeared in magazines such as Harper’s, BOMB, and Noon, and in anthologies including A Best of Fence and Where We Live Now: An Annotated Reader. Dutton received her PhD from the University of Denver, where she served as associate editor of the Denver Quarterly. Before joining the faculty at Washington University she taught in the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa and was the book designer at Dalkey Archive Press. Dutton founded and edits the small press Dorothy, a publishing project.

Sarah Rosenthal grew up in Chicago and lives in San Francisco. She is the author of three
chapbooks: How I Wrote This Story (Margin to Margin, 2001), sitings (a+bend, 2000) and
not-chicago (Melodeon Poetry Systems, 1998). Her poetry and fiction have appeared in
numerous journals and have been anthologized in Bay Poetics (Faux Press, 2006) and
hinge (Crack Press, 2002). She has taught creative writing at Santa Clara University and
San Francisco State University. She has edited a collection of interviews entitled A Community
Writing Itself: Conversations with Vanguard Writers of the Bay Area. She is the recipient of the
Leo Litwak Award for Fiction and grant-supported writing residencies at the Vermont
Studio Center and the Ragdale Foundation.

Ann Waldman in Ann Arbor

Notable Author and Beat Poetry Enthusiast Anne Waldman to Visit Ann Arbor

Internationally acclaimed poet Anne Waldman, co-founded with Allen Ginsberg, the celebrated Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado and is the author of more than 40 books. On April 13th and 14th, Waldman will be visiting Ann Arbor on behalf of the One Pause Poetry Series. The events will take place at METAL, at 220 Felch Street in downtown Ann Arbor.

Waldman, active in the Beat Poetry, New York School, and Black Mountain movements, is an integral member of the "Outrider" experimental poetry community, a culture she has helped create and nurture for over four decades as writer, editor, teacher, performer, magpie scholar, and cultural/political activist. Her work is energetic, passionate, panoramic, and fierce at times. Publishers Weekly recently referred to Waldman as "a counter-cultural giant." Waldman will be reading from The Iovis Trilogy: Colors in the Mechanism of Concealment (Coffee House Press, 2011), a 25-year project in the making.
The schedule for the events is as follows:

April 13, 7-9pm: Reading with Anne Waldman. Reception and book-signing to follow.

April 14, 10:30am-noon: Conversations with Poets: Anne Waldman. One Pause Director Sarah Messer interviews Anne Waldman on her approach to poetry. This interview will be recorded and archived as a part of the One Pause Archive Project.

All readings and conversations are free and open to the public.

One Pause Poetry is part of the nonprofit arts organization Copper Colored Mountain Arts, which serves Southeastern Michigan and is sponsored by the Michigan Council for the Arts and Cultural Affairs, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation.
