As an early adopter of online publishing and distribution of literary works, Prof. Schmeer’s poems, stories, and articles have appeared in numerous small press journals, both online and in print. A complete list of his publications can be found in his CV, available on this web site.
Prof. Schmeer occasionally posts at Poetry Midwest+ (a pop culture/meme miscellany), Poem Shots (a weird poem miscellany), and Rended Press (tabletop role-playing game materials).
Prof. Schmeer edited and published Poetry Midwest from 2001 to 2010 and was an irregular contributor to the discussion at The Plumbline School. He wrote occasional book reviews for several outlets, including 42, Verse Online, and Sentence, and coordinated book reviews for The Great American Pinup prior to its demise due to a Blogger.com technical issue.
His chapbook, Twenty-One Cents, published in 2002, is available from Pudding House Press. He has other chapbook and book manuscripts currently under consideration at a number of small press publishers. A sample of small lyrical and experimental poems is available from this web site.
From 1995 to 1998, Prof. Schmeer edited and published Poetry Ink, an online literary newsletter, and Electric Broadsheet, an irregularly appearing broadside series of short fiction, poetry, and drama.
