Tips From the Editor: 

Our First Chapbook Contest runs yearly, but our open call for full-length collections runs about every other year. Look for our next call for full-length poetry collections in 2026. Before you enter our yearly chapbook contest for poetry, familiarize yourself with the work of Sheila-Na-Gig online. Winning chapbooks often have a similar aesthetic.

Our second fiction anthology will be published in winter 2024. Keep an eye on the website for new calls for fiction for future anthologies. These are sporadic.

Titles per Year: 
6 to 10
Editorial Focus:
