Barrelhouse

I'm one of the founding editors and all around do-stuff people at Barrelhouse. We're a literary magazine, small press, and nonprofit organization that supports all things literary. We started in Washington DC and still maintain a presence in the literary community there, although now we're also spread out pretty much all over the country, with editors in Philly, Michigan, Connecticut. New York, Oregon, and me here in State College. 

We do a lot of stuff: 

We put out a print magazine.

We run a small press and a chapbook press.

We run the Conversations and Connections Writer's Conference, which is held in April in DC. I’m the primary organizer of the conference. We’ve held 30 conferences so far.  

We run Barrelhouse Writer Camp, a writer's retreat about fifteen minutes away from my house here in Central PA.

We have an awesome website that is updated all the time with book reviews, columns, fiction, poetry, nonfiction, and special issues.
