We will seek reviews in major literary and general audience
publications that have previously covered Wier’s or James Tate’s
books, including Publishers Weekly, Boston Globe, Boston Review,
New York Times, New York Review of Books, Poets & Writers, Poetry,
and many others.
We will promote the book to Wier’s extensive network of fellow
poets and former students who might be interested in selling or
assigning the book, drawing on a mailing list we compiled for You
Good Thing.
We will promote the book directly to the small publishing community
in the Northeast, in which Wier has been an influential figure.
