I’m one of those crazy poetry freaks who goes gremlin without an occasional fix. I find a few of the more mainstream books locally, but for the really good stuff you have to scout out the small presses. Here’s my go-to list:
We’ll talk later about some of the goodies I’ve found from these guys. For now, I’d love it if you would share some of your favorite presses. I know you WOM-PO ladies probably have a few that I have missed. Burn up the comments!

Hello Ms La Rue! I’ve tried to get your attention ON the list, but can you please
add Salmon Poetry to YOUR list? Are you familiar with Salmon, if not I urge you
to check them out. THey have published some celebrated and of course , emerging poets, first building up the “Canon” for Irish literary women and later crossing the pond to to do the same for mostly women(but not exclusively) in the US.
Salmon’s Anthologies are excellent, and all are beautifully produced.
Sorry I didn’t get back to you sooner. Salmon Poetry is on the second half of the list: https://bonesparkblog.wordpress.com/2014/02/14/small-poetry-presses-part-ii/.
