    PUB: Contest > Subito Press

    Contest

    Subito encourages work that challenges accepted literary modes; we look for new voices as well as previously published writers.

    We publish two books of innovative writing a year through our poetry and fiction contests. All entries are also considered for publication with the press. We only consider unsolicited manuscripts through these contests; however, if you have a manuscript that you feel fits into our aesthetic, please query us via email.

    Submissions are open annually during the month of July.

    Contest Guidlines

    Reading Fee is $20. Checks or Money Orders are accepted. Make checks payable to Subito Press. If you send us a reading fee of $30, we’ll send you a copy of the previous winner in either poetry or fiction, simply specify on the cover sheet (the one including your address) which title you’d like.

    Manuscripts should include two cover sheets: one containing only the title of the manuscript (for blind reading purposes), and one containing the manuscript title, the author’s name, address, phone number, and e-mail.

    All submissions will be judged anonymously. Friends, relatives, and former students of University of Colorado-Boulder creative writing faculty are not eligible. Employees or graduates of the University of Colorado-Boulder are also ineligible. Simultaneous submissions are fine but please notify Subito immediately if your manuscript is accepted elsewhere.

    Notification of winners will be posted on our website by November of each year. All manuscripts will be recycled, so there is no need to include an SASE.

    CLMP Contest Code of Ethics

    Subito Press adheres to the Council of Literary Magazines & Presses Contest Code of Ethics: CLMP’s community of independent literary publishers believes that ethical contests serve our shared goal: to connect writers and readers by publishing exceptional writing. We believe that intent to act ethically, clarity of guidelines, and transparency of process form the foundation of an ethical contest. To that end, we agree to 1) conduct our contests as ethically as possible and to address any unethical behavior on the part of our readers, judges, or editors; 2) to provide clear and specific contest guidelines—defining conflict of interest for all parties involved; and 3) to make the mechanics of our selection process available to the public. This Code recognizes that different contest models produce different results, but that each model can be run ethically. We have adopted this Code to reinforce our integrity and dedication as a publishing community and to ensure that our contests contribute to a vibrant literary heritage.
