2009 Chapbook Contest [Closed: Winner Announced]
Postmark Deadline: November 30, 2009
Prize: 100 Copies of a perfect-bound chapbook
Reading Fee: $20, checks payable to Concrete Wolf.
Final Judge: Jeannine Hall Gailey
We prefer chapbooks that have a theme, either obvious (i.e. chapbook about a divorce) or understated (i.e. all the poems mention the color blue). We like a collection that feels more like a whole than a sampling of work. We have no preference as to formal or free verse.
Submission Guidelines
16 to 26 pages of poetry, plus a table of contents and acknowledgements (if applicable).
Please number all your pages.
Include 2 cover sheets, one with title, author information (including email and phone), and one just with the title.
Reading Fee: $20, checks payable to Concrete Wolf.
SASE for results only. Manuscripts cannot be returned.
Include a 6 by 9 postage-paid envelope stamped with $2.10 postage, if you'd like a copy of the winning chapbook.
Simultaneous and multiple submissions okay. Notify us by email if you need to remove your chapbook from consideration.
Winner will be announced in February 2010 and published Fall 2010.
