Do You Have Any Cover Letter Advice?
Keep it short and direct. Include a short third-person bio that we might be able to use should we publish your poem(s)
What Do You Look For In A Submission?
We look for writing that is rich in substance, both of subject and craft. We want to be surprised and genuinely thrilled, not simply shocked. We also love to see a writer with a keen, clear eye for the world.
What Advice Do You Have For First-time Submitters?
Proofread and revise meticulously. Don't waste your or our time by sending "B"-list work. Stay within the guideline sub limits, and put your name and contact info on EVERY PAGE in case your work is printed and the pages separate.
