1. Who Can Submit

Only American residents or U.S. citizens may submit.

2. Submission Content

  • Submit your 5–10 best poems in English.
  • Include three author photos (e.g., headshots or thematic images).
  • Include a concise biography (your life, education, major influences, publications—keep it to a short paragraph).

3. Formatting

  • Use clean, standard fonts (e.g., Times New Roman, 12-point).
  • Each poem should start on a new page, standard spacing unless form demands otherwise.
  • Photo files should be clearly labeled (e.g., “YourName_Photo1.jpg”).
  • The bio should be no more than a few lines (3–5 sentences).

4. Submission Method & Rules

  • Submit via Submittable or as specified by the publication.
  • Do not submit previously published poems. All submissions must be original/unpublished.
  • You may submit simultaneously to multiple venues—but notify them immediately if accepted elsewhere.
  • Expect a response time up to six months; don’t follow up before that.
