Anomaly Poetry Rituals & Tidings Anthology Series

A project of Anomaly Poetry (see other related projects).

About

Rituals: Our summer anthology focuses on themes of nostaliga and memory, and the things that connect us across time, space and history. We want your summertime vacation memories. A first kiss at sunset. The existential musings as you stare up at a midsummer meteor shower.

Tidings: Our winter anthology focuses on themes of tradition, cycles of life – the light and the dark, and the need for human connection. We want your cozy holiday memories. The power of a winter storm. The sparkling beauty of a frozen landscape.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
  • Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
  • Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
