Entryrequirements
Your poetry can be laid out as you wish,as we understand that form often relates to the effect of a poem.However,please be sure to stick to a maximum of 3 pages per poem.
Submissionguidelines
We accept works,written in English,from anywhere in the world.But we don’t accept works previously published elsewhere.
Writers over the age of thirteen are welcome to participate.Please note that if you’re aged 13-16 and your work is selected for publication,we’ll require a signature from a parent or a guardian.
Please include your name and contact information in your cover letter only and remove any identifying information from both the submitted work and the file name.
We edit every piece accepted for publication whether your work is selected for publication through our online blog or in our print magazine.For this cooperative process we’ll pair you with one of our senior editors.All our editors have been trained to help guide the development of each piece to reach its fullest potential in keeping with the author’s vision.This doesn’t mean we’ll take on a wild jumble of words and half-formed thoughts.
Notes
The contest reserves the right to NOT award a winner if the submissions don’t reach a publishable standard.In this case,the winner won’t be announced.Although this has rarely come to pass in our six-year publishing history,our top priority must remain with the quality of the work we publish.
