The Song Cave is looking for your best work in poetry! Whether you’re submitting your first full-length book or twelfth, you’re eligible to submit. Translations are welcome. Please submit your manuscript as a PDF, including page numbers and a table of contents. Please include your bio and contact information in your cover letter.

Simultaneous submissions are acceptable, but please notify The Song Cave if your manuscript is accepted elsewhere. You can submit more than one manuscript, but each manuscript must be submitted separately, each with a separate entry fee ($10 USD). If your manuscript is chosen, you will have the opportunity to make revisions before publication; however, once you’ve submitted, no revisions will be considered during the reading period.

This reading period is now open and ends at midnight on March 31, 2016. The results from this reading period will be announced in May, and The Song Cave will publish the selected manuscript in 2017.
