No Editorial Focus
We look for a well integrated manuscript of carefully crafted poems. No subject, style, or form restrictions. Manuscripts are read blind by poet reader/judges who care about good work. We offer feedback to all finalists and semi-finalists. Check our web page for guidelines and a link to our online submissions manager starting in January.
Tips From the Editor
Use a binder clip for paper submissions. Put all identifying information on the first title page only, or for electronic submissions, in the "Notes" box but not in the manuscript file itself. For complete information, read our web page and WINNERS: A RETROSPECTIVE OF THE WASHINGTON PRIZE. Also consider the guidelines for the Hilary Tham Capital Collection and International Editions.
