Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions. We provide the following information as an archive.

About

So what does ‘In Transit” mean to you? It could be travel. It could be experiences on transit or on a trip to some where. It could mean moving from one stage of life to another. Or maybe be something about the vehicles used moving from one place to another, literately or figuratively. ‘In Transit’ will be poetry that describes, in a clear and concise voice, about moving, being on your way, to something or somewhere else.

Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for all submissions. (Note: About 9% of anthologies always charge fees.)
