Throughout the month of July, Tupelo Press will hold open submissions for book-length poetry collections (48-90 pages) and chapbook-length poetry collections (30-47 pages). Submissions are accepted from anyone writing in the English language (whether in the United States or abroad).
Make sure that your cover page includes the title, your name and contact information, including address, phone number and email address.
There is a reading fee of $28 for each manuscript submitted. Why a reading fee? We are an independent, nonprofit literary press. Reading fees help defray, but do not by any means cover, the significant cost of publishing the many books we select outside of our competitions. Multiple submissions are accepted, so long as each submission is accompanied by a separate $28 reading fee. Manuscripts that have been submitted during this open reading period (July 2012) may not be revised and submitted again unless they are accompanied by an additional $28 reading fee.
The online submission system will be accepting poetry manuscripts between July 1 and July 31.
