Atlanta Review Chapbook Competition A project of Atlanta Review (see other related projects). About Atlanta Review is pleased to invite submissions for our poetry chapbook competition! As with our journal, we seek simply amazing poetry–poetry that delights, poetry that refreshes the spirit, that sparks curiosity, that intrigues the intellect, that fills the senses, that says something genuine about the world as well as the individual. We celebrate diversity and are open to many styles, forms, and kinds of poetry, about any and all subjects. Chapbooks with a clear theme are especially welcome. (We are not looking for visual/graphic poetry at this time.) Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for all submissions. The fee is USD $25 (above average for contests).
