About Beltway	English (USA)
Local list for Beltway Poetry Quarterly. Subscribers to this list get quarterly notifications of new issues of the on-line journal, and in addition, regular email about DC-area literary events, calls for entries, and more. Beltway Poetry Quarterly has been published since January 2000. A recent article in the Washington Post states: "These days a tasty verse morsel is just a mouse click away, thanks to Beltway...The journal offers new work by area poets, a voluminous section on local readings and extensive information on grants, awards and regional 'pobiz' resources." The Chronicle of Higher Education named Beltway one of nine poetry web sites "worth exploring." And Chickenbones, a national magazine of African American arts, lauds Beltway's inclusiveness, writing that the journal features "poets from different traditions (academic, spoken word, experimental, etc.) and with different levels of experience (from internationally known folks such as Pulitzer-Prize-winner Henry Taylor) to authors who have not yet published books. This range provides a dynamic mix that showcases the best poetry from the Beltway area and encourages a sense of community."
