From Doug Holder:
The finalists for the Somerville Poet Laureate are:
Gloria Mindock (Founder of the Cervena Barva Press)
Nicole Terez Dutton (Cave Canem Award --Winner)
Ralph Pennel ( Fiction editor Midway Journal)
Read this article on the search from the Tufts Daily. Big props to Doug for working to search for a worthy candidate to fill a position that many thought was rightfully his.
The interview process has already begun. As much as I know and like everyone on the list, I am rooting for Gloria Mindock, as her Červená Barva Press has done so much great work. Plus it would coincide perfectly with the press' upcoming ten year anniversary. I should offer disclosure, I guess, and say that we're friends and she published one of my chapbooks, but there's no way to vote, and it's out of the people's hands now. Good luck to everyone.
