PLACES TO PUBLISH REVIEWS WITH SOME ANNOTATIONS
American Book Review: Reviewers cannot be a personal friend of the poet. Send review copies and ideas to: Rochelle Ratner. I strongly urge all wompos to send Rochelle Ratner a copy of your book. ABR is one of the few places I know that attempts to review as many small press books of poetry as possible.-S.Dolin Here's her response to my query on behalf of all wompos:
It's best to send poetry books directly to my home address. In terms of queries -- if anyone's interested in reviewing books, I'd love to have them query me. E-mail's best, with clips if they have any. In terms of having books reviewed, so long as they send us the book, understand it's
being considered for review. We can't give out any information on whether or not we've assigned it, or are planning to assign it. Also be aware that ABR cannot accept reviews after a book is more than six month's old, even though it's sometimes much longer before it actually appears in our pages -- so please let people know that to give a book its best chance for review, send it as early as possible, preferably before the publication date.
