	The Spillway Review Poet in Residence Program The authors of all poetry selected for publication in Spillway Review will be considered for the position of Spillway Review Poet in Residence. There is no need to apply. However, you may submit one or two paragraphs about the importance of poetry, what constitutes good poetry, and/or recommended poetry, and the editors will consider this in the selection process. Our first Poet in Residence was Barry Dunlap, of Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana, who held the post from May to July, 2004. The May - July 2004 Spillway Review Poet in Residence received an autographed copy of a work by Billy Collins, Poet Laureate of the United States, 2001-2003. The August - October 2004 Spillway Review Poet in Residence, Diane E. Dees, of St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana, and the November 2004 - January 2005 Poet in Residence, Amanda Auchter of Houston, Texas, each received a copy of the The Best Cigarette, an audio CD of Billy Collins, poet laureate of the United States, 2001-2003, reading his own poems. Consideration is underway for the selection of future Spillway Review Poets in Residence.
