We held our second open submission period in November and received 77 manuscripts. As usual, it was wonderful to receive and read through each manuscript. Perhaps the highlight was the fact that 17 were submitted on the last day – I guess even poets suffer from procrastination. 😉 From this open submission period we’ve chosen two manuscripts to publish in 2022.

Both of these collections wowed us and we feel they are a wonderful fit for the press. Full interviews with the poets are forthcoming, in the meantime, you can check out Sarah Beddow at her website, Twitter, or Instagram and you can find Laurie Rachkus Uttich on her website, Twitter, or Instagram.
If you weren’t ready to submit your manuscript or it wasn’t selected, never fear – we’ll open again for submissions in April 2022! Thanks for the continued support and we can’t wait to bring these new collections into the world!
