Epiphany Editions Chapbook Contest in Poetry, Prose Poetry, and Micro Fiction
JUDGED BY DAVID SHUMATE
SUBMISSIONS DUE 9/30 2011
In the fall of 2011, Epiphany Editions will publish two chapbooks in limited editions of 300 each. The first will be by our contest judge, David Shumate, and the second will be chosen from among our submissions.
As much as we would like to be able to open submissions free of charge, we are a non-profit organization and all proceeds from your submission fee of $12 will go towards the production of the books. For a submission fee of $16, contestants will also receive copies of both chapbooks in the form of Book Kits with instructions for binding. For more information on our revolutionary model for chapbook publishing, click here.
Chapbooks will be letterpressed hand printed covers on quality stock paper professionally designed and distributed. Should they choose to, winners will have the opportunity to be involved in the design of books.
Epiphany Editions is connected to Epiphany, a literary magazine, and we are members of CLMP. We adhere to CLMP standard practices concerning book contests and all submissions will be filed by our intern. No readers will see contestants' names, and any submissions recognized by readers will be passed along to another reader.
Please submit up to three chapbooks (each will require a separate reading fee) with two cover pages. The first should include the cover, title, personal information, and how you learned about the contest. The second should include title only.
We are accepting submissions by mail and online.
To submit online, please make your purchase via Google Checkout below and include your confirmation number in the "notes" of your submission.
To submit by mail please send submissions with check or money order payable to "Epiphany Magazine" to 71 Bedford St, New York, NY 10014.
We look forward to reading your manuscripts! Good luck!
