Do you have questions about scholarly book publishing? Are you curious about the workflow of university presses, the role of acquisitions editors, and how and when to approach presses about your project? Amherst College Press is offering drop-in monthly office hours via Zoom! Staff from the press will be available to talk with you about a range of issues that first-time and long-time authors often confront.
In the time of uncertainty and anxiety, poetry brings us hope, inspiration and reflection. Have you been reading or writing poems in the pandemic?
