Event Details
The Sublingua Prize for Poetry is dedicated to the discovery of an exceptional debut poetry collection written in English by a female-identifying writer of any citizenship residing in the United States who has not yet published or self-published a full-length manuscript in any genre nor a chapbook exceeding 30 pages.
The poetry manuscript can be a hybrid, that is, it can intersect with any genre, including speculative prose and visual elements. Essentially, the organizers are looking for work that celebrates hybridity and resists genre specificity.
Judged by the editors of Inverted Syntax, one winner will be selected with the possibility of runners-up.
Prizes
- Publication with Inverted Syntax Press (using Bookmobile for printing and Itasca Books for distribution).
- 25 author copies.
- $500 prize money.
- Weeklong writing retreat to a historic Victorian home located in Leadville, Colorado, with up to four members of your writing community.
Any writer residing outside of the USA is not eligible.
