Welcome to the Colorado Poets Center

Description:

This is a directory of writers who have published literary poetry and who live and work in Colorado or have strong ties to the state. This site contains Colorado poets' biographical and bibliographical material, selections from published work, and availability for readings and/or working in schools.

Please use the navigation options at the top to locate poets by last name. You may also use the navigation options to locate Colorado's literary magazines.

To be included in the directory of Colorado Poets, a writer must have published a book or chapbook of poems, or at least five poems with a legitimate (i. e. not a vanity) press or magazine. Readers, publishers, sponsors, or those interested in having poets give readings or work in the schools are urged to contact the writers at their listed address.

If you wish to be included on this site of Colorado poets, please contact Dr. Robert King at rwendellking@comcast.net or write to Colorado Poets Center, Candelaria 0190, Box 119, University of Northern Colorado, Greeley, CO 80639 (phone: 970-351-2929)
