“Almost Fifteen”
Dear Friend:
In 2008, Four Way Books will celebrate its 15th anniversary. With over 70 books published and fifteen books currently under contract, we are committed to bringing the work of fine poets to the public eye. To continue this work we need your help. Please consider making a contribution to Four Way Books this year.
FWB publishes between 6-8 books annually through our national contest, general submission, and editorial solicitation. Our books are distributed through University Press of New England and are available at booksellers, online, and through the press at www.fourwaybooks.com.
Not just a publisher
Four Way Books sponsors Readings on the Bowery: From September through May, we present four readers each month at The Bowery Poetry Club in New York City. The series provides us with the opportunity to gain exposure for our own authors and to invite writers from trade houses and other small presses to participate in the series as well as those whose fine work is as yet unpublished.
Writers’s Residencies: Four Way sends one writer a year to an artist’s retreat (often, The Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown) for a residency of up to one month, sponsored by the press. In 2004, Pamela Kircher of Ohio (Whole Sky, 1996) enjoyed uninterrupted writing time at a retreat for writers in New Hampshire. Pimone Triplett of Oregon, winner of the FWB Levis Prize for The Price of Light (2005), spent one month in Provincetown in 2005. Gary Copeland Lilley was the 2006 resident (The Subsequent Blues, 2004), and Joel Brouwer (Centuries, 2003) spent a productive month at the center in 2007. Ryan Murphy will be in residence at the center in 2008.
Our programs are ambitious and while we are fortunate to have received significant grants during the past ten years, our continued success depends on the support of individual donors, those of you who are committed to the tradition of and need for fine literature. Your gift is essential to us, and we are most grateful.
Yours truly,
Martha Rhodes, Director
