Mineral Point, Wisconsin, is a town of artists and makers in the Driftless region of Wisconsin — a landscape the glaciers never reached and flattened out, so it remains shadowed, hilly, ragged, and unexpected.

Brain Mill Press is pleased to publish the Mineral Point Poetry Series. In April 2024, in coordination with the Wisconsin Fellowship of Poets, the series will open a contest to select a chapbook by a Wisconsin poet for publication, with a particular interest in underrepresented voices. The series editor may also solicit and review manuscripts outside these reading periods at her discretion.
