When you message us on social media or email us, we strive to res­pond to all general questions within 5 business days.

Manuscript Submissions

To submit a manuscript during an open sub­mis­sion period by using our submission form, review our submission guide­lines.

We do not review or respond to unsolicited manuscripts, book proposals, or in­quir­ies about publishing services.

We select books for publication only after es­tab­lish­ing an editorial relationship with authors who have published poems in our anthologies. To learn about our approach to publishing, we strongly re­com­mend familiarizing yourself with our edi­to­ri­al ethos, our editorial prac­tices and sub­mis­sion guide­lines, and the books we have al­ready re­leased.

Professional Inquiries

For questions from prospective reviewers, edu­ca­tors, and retailers, we invite you to fill out the following form.

Important:
  • We send physical review copies and desk co­pies of books on­ly to individuals who write reviews of our books or use them in their clas­srooms.
  • Any submissions or applications for staff positions sent through this form will be discarded. To stay up to date with new job postings and open submission periods subscribe to our newsletter.
