Book synopsis

Twenty years ago when Alex Blackburn moved to Colorado Springs he encountered a region rich in writing but poor in publishing. And so he founded Writers' Forum, a literary annual devoted to publishing new as well as recognized poets and fiction writers, especially those from the American West. To date, Writers' Forum has received more than 20,000 manuscript submissions and published more than 180 fiction writers and 350 poets, many of whom have gone on to achieve literary prominence. Among university-sponsored magazines in the nation's top thirty nonpaying fiction markets, it has been ranked first (Writer's Digest). Higher Elevations is a collection of some of Writers' Forum best work. Authors represented here include Clay Reynolds, Gladys Swan, Craig Lesley, Robert Roripaugh, Reynolds Price, Bret Lott, Russell Martin, Robert O. Greer, Jr., Charles Baxter, Julian Silva, Miles Wilson, Fred Chappell, and Ron Carlson.
