Crab Creek Review's Annual Poetry Contest (Deadline: May 31) Guest Judge: Nancy Pagh

It's not too late to late to get your entries in for our Crab Creek Review Poetry Contest.

A few things you may not know--

1)  We consider all poems submitted for our contest for publication.  Last year, we published about 10-12 poems from finalists and those poems are also considered for yearly Editors' Prize and Pushcart nominations.

2)  This contest helps keep our press afloat.  I hadn't realized that about contests, but as well as being a way to help promote poets, it's also helps us stay alive in the literary arts.

3)  The judge this year is Nancy Pagh (author of No Sweeter Fat) and she's awesome.

So thank you for your support of Crab Creek Review.  We so appreciate the support of poets and we hope we can help promote your work as well.

Here are the details--

  1. Kelli,

    I'll be getting the word out in my neck of the woods, or rather, glades. Last week, I received the latest issue of Crab Creek, and you and Annette are doing a wonderful job. And I'll be renewing my guardianship sometime in August (after I get my summer course pay).

    Hope you get tons and tons of entries.

    Jim
