Black Sunflowers: Open call for poetry chapbooks
Deadline: Sun 7 Jun 2020
Black Sunflowers is an art oriented small poetry press with a focus on poetry from women, especially older women and black poets. We are looking for completed, polished mini collections of poetry. We would prefer a set of themed poems but are open to all submissions. Open to poets internationally aged 18+.
What we want
We want a set of poems that work perfectly as a chapbook, that feel ‘whole’ rather than part of a larger collection. Individual poems may have been published elsewhere but the complete set must be unpublished.
What we like
edgy / experimental / beautiful /unsettling / powerful / unfamiliar / bold / hypnotising
We want to be startled and moved. We want to think ‘yes’ while we are reading.
What you get
From our first submissions round, we hope to select four outstanding poets who we will publish and market extensively. The successful poets will have their chapbook published and distributed by Black Sunflowers press within 1 year of close of submissions. Successful poets will receive a fee of £150 plus 20 copies of the chapbook.
One submission costs $3 (approx £2.50)
