We’re always excited when our past contributors have new books out. Check out Douglas Cole’s The Blue Island, available from Kelsay Books.
If you are a past contributor who’s got something new to share, please let us know. We love to support the Atlanta Review fam!
Did you miss us while we were closed to online submissions? Of course you did. And we missed you too!
Our doors are open once more! You can start sending us your wonderful poems at Submittable. We are ready for a new batch. (Though tbh we’re still making our way through contest subs, so we ask for our contest submitters’ continued patience while we finish reading your work–we received nearly 475 submissions this year).
Hope you’re having a great summer writing your hearts out!
It’s summer which means we’re about to take a month off from receiving new work so that we can catch up on all the general/ contest submissions you’ve sent us—well, we will try anyway!
Our Submittable portal will be closed from June 1-30 for general submissions. (Of course, you can always snail mail us work in June if you simply MUST send us your poems.)
We will re-open for new submissions on July 1st.
If you’ve been sitting on the fence about sending in your poetry to our International Poetry Contest, what are you waiting for?
The contest closes at 11:59 p.m. tomorrow, May 15th! The time for procrastination is over!
Attention undergraduate poets–here’s a bright idea for you:
Would you like to see your poem in print AND win $100 prize? Of course you would!
The Dan Veach Prize for Younger Writers is open to undergraduate students from 18-23, and it’s free to enter. (You just need a Submittable account, which is also free, to submit your work.)
Send us two of your best poems, each under 40 lines long, and a recommendation letter from a professor or an adult who knows your writing well and can attest that it’s your own work.
The contest is open until June 1st! Enter here.
(And creative writing professors–please send your brilliant student poets our way!)
