GUIDELINES
Send manuscripts of 48 or more pages of poetry, no more than one poem per page, no smaller than 12 point type in an easily readable font. Poems may have appeared in journals and chapbooks, but not in full-length, single-author collections.
Name, address, phone number, e-mail address, title of work, and title of poetry collection must appear on the cover letter. only The goal is “blind” judging. Author’s name should not appear anywhere in manuscript except the cover letter.
No restriction on content, style, or subject—we’re looking for the best manuscript.
All checks or money orders for entry fee—$25—should be made payable to Lost Horse Press. Submissions without a reading fee enclosed will not be considered. A $50 fee will be charged for returned checks.
Include SASE (number #10 business envelope) with sufficient postage for notification of finalists and winner. Manuscripts will be recycled. We are sorry but manu
scripts cannot be returned.
If manuscripts arrive postage due, they will be returned.
Use white, lightweight paper. Quality paper won’t impress readers the way a quality manuscript will.
Print on one side only. Type—no handwriting should appear anywhere on the manuscript.
