V. Press Submissions Windows 2018
V. Press will be open to submissions for poetry pamphlets, poetry collections and flash fiction pamphlet during the following submissions windows in 2018. Poetry submissions: open through April and May 2018. Flash fiction submissions: open through July 2018.
V. Press is an independent publisher of poetry and flash fiction, founded in 2013.
Stage 1 Submission
1) A sample of ten single-sided A4 pages of poetry or fifteen single-sided pages of flash fiction from a finished manuscript should be sent via email as one MS Word or pdf document, with a front page stating all the poem/flash fiction titles and the title of the overall pamphlet/collection. If you are submitting poetry, please specify whether the submission is for a pamphlet (up to 25 pages of poetry/flashes) or a full collection (40+ pages of poetry).
2) The front page should also include a 200-300 statement about what makes the complete pamphlet/collection ‘very very’. This is the author’s chance to sell both the work (as might, for example, be found on the back of the book or in a blurb for the V. Press website) and also outline what makes it the right fit for V. Press’s list. This list is open to be defined by the books that we publish, so please do impress, surprise and wow us. Please note that we are able take on far fewer collections than pamphlets.
