Beth Paulson, Ouray Author and Poet, has joined our Author Services List and has added her book of essays to our Extended Catalog

Beth Paulson has joined our list of extended authors and also offers author services.

Beth’s poems have appeared in many small magazines and national anthologies, and her second book, The Company of Trees, was published in 2004. A former English professor at California State University Los Angeles, she directs poetry events, leads writing and creativity workshops, and lives in Ouray, Colorado, where she writes a column for the Ouray County Plaindealer.

In her writing Beth tries to connect her close observations of the natural world to the questions of the human condition and spirit. In her words, “I try to keep my mind/ on this calling,/ the only way I know/ to save the earth.”

Beth has received several prizes for her poems, including most recently two 2008 Mark Fischer prizes. Her poem, “Hollyhocks,” was nominated for the 2007 Pushcart Prize and her poem, “The Color of Snow,” was nominated for a 2009 Pushcart Prize.

See Beth’s website at www.wordcatcher.org. You may order her book of essays, Uniquely Ouray: Reflections on Life in a Mountain County, from our Extended Catalog.

Mt. Sneffels Press now provides web fulfillment for local authors via our Extended Catalog (click image)

At the recent Montrose Small Press Month workshop, I announced that I will do web fulfillment for local authors. By local I mean Delta, Gunnison, Montrose, and Ouray Counties. I’ll do it simply, too.

1. You leave a couple copies of your book with me
2. I will place information about your book into our “Extended Catalog” at list price, along with a PayPal “Buy Now” button.
3. I’ll put up an Author Profile in the “Our Extended Authors” category
4. Customers pay via PayPal; I’ll take care of shipping
5. I’ll be just like a bookstore: I keep 40% of list price, you keep 60%
6. You can pull out at any time—just drop by and pick up your books
7. If I sell out, please get additional copies to me promptly—PayPal will refuse to sell if the inventory drops to zero.

I reserve the usual rights to refuse anything for any reason. If you are interested, please use the “Contact Us” page or the comment form below.
