Attendees say:
 
 
"...My consultation completely changed the way I view the manuscript. There is nothing like what you are providing. Kudos!" Dawn Fewkes, Horseheads, NY
 
 
"...It was a goldmine for me especially, removed as I am from the academic world and from a community of serious poets." LouAnn Muhm, Park Rapids, MN, Teacher, Creative Writing
 
 
"...extremely helpful to hear responses to the other manuscripts. I learned as much or more from the critiques of others' manuscripts as I did from the critique of mine." Mary Crow, Fort Collins, CO, Poet Laureate of Colorado
 
 
" Attending the Colrain Manuscript Conference was undoubtedly the most profound poetry experience I've ever had. What I learned in forty-eight hours will be with me for years to come."Tracy Kroetsky, Berkley, CA
 
 
"...The Colrain conference was everything I'd hoped it would be and more. I feel well on my way, now, to a publishable manuscript." Pat Lowry Collins, MA
 
 
"The Colrain Manuscript Conference managed to pack into a weekend what a lot of grad school teachers never had time to do in their classes or individually: offer finishing touches to a manuscript eager to be picked up by a publisher." Steve Fellner, Brockport, NY
 
 
and MORE.
