2014 DWARF STARS NOMINATIONS OPEN

Submissions are open for the Dwarf Stars anthology, edited by Sandra Lindow, from which the best short poem published in 2013 is selected. Anyone may submit their own poems or those of others; there is no limit to how many poems you may submit for the anthology, but only SFPA members may vote for the award.

All genres of speculative poetry are eligible, including science fiction, fantasy, horror, and “unclassifiable, but speculative.” Poems must be no more than ten lines (no more than 100 words for prose poems) not including title or stanza breaks, and first published in 2013; include publication credit. Editors are welcome to submit entire issues; no need to name specific poems. Poems must be received by May 15.

Send e-mail submissions (preferred) to dwarfstars@sfpoetry.com; please use “Dwarf Stars sub” as the subject line so submissions don’t get buried in our inboxes. Mail print submissions (discouraged) to Sandra Lindow, 1308 16th Ave E, Menomonie WI 54751.

Please send your nominations to the address above and alert any other lists you think may be interested.
