Submissions reading period: Poems from manuscripts received out of the submissions reading period will not be read or responded to. We are currently on hiatus and taking a break for self-care; no submissions can be taken until further notice. Thank you for your interest in us, and please check back with us in Summer 2023.
Email 5 to 10 poems from your poetry manuscript and a synopsis in the body of the email to shabdapress@yahoo.com. We will not open attachments. If we are interested in reading the entire manuscript, we will contact you to submit the entire manuscript (approximately 50 to 100 pages).
Simultaneous submissions are fine as long as you notify us immediately if your manuscript is accepted elsewhere.
Include the following in your subject line: Your Name - Poetry Manuscript Submission
Reading and selecting manuscripts is hard work and takes time. Allow at least 5 to 6 months for a response.
*Accepted manuscripts for publication MUST be submitted in .DOC or .RTF format. .PDFs will not be accepted.
