TBR Editorial Review Prize Call

Tidal Basin Review invites prose and poetry submissions for the second annual TBR Editorial Review Prize. One poem and one prose entry (fiction or creative nonfiction) will be chosen for this prize.

$200.00 will be awarded to one winner in each category (i.e., poetry and prose). In some cases, runners-up may be identified, however, Tidal Basin Review is not obligated to select runners-up. All winners will be published in the upcoming issue of Tidal Basin Review.

ENTRY GUIDELINES

For prose entries, submit via the Submission Manager no more than 2,500 words. For poetry entries, submit no more than five (5) poems. You may make multiple submissions, however, a $15 fee must accompany each entry. Previously published work, including work that has appeared online (in any form), is not eligible. There are no restrictions regarding form, style, or content. We accept simultaneous submissions, but ask that you alert us via the Submission Manager if your work is accepted elsewhere. No refunds will be provided for partial or full withdrawals. All eligible contest entries will be considered for publication in an issue of Tidal Basin Review.
