About
The Poetry Box SELECT imprint is a Traditional Publishing opportunity for well-established poets (those who have been published widely in curated literary journals and anthologies). The Poetry Box will choose 2-3 full-length poetry manuscripts each summer and offer those poets a traditional, royalty-earning publishing contract to have their book designed and published the following year. Poets who have been published under The Poetry Box Select imprint, established in 2018, include: Cynthia Gallaher, Karla Linn Merrifield, Carolyn Martin, Christopher Luna, Kristin Berger, Joan Colby, Dianalee Velie, Rebecca Smolen, Laura LeHew, Jeanne Julian, Michael Waterson, Ahrend Torrey, Sherry Rind, and Michael Estabrook.
Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for all submissions.
Limited Demographic: Submissions are restricted to US residents who have been widely published.

Poetry Temp Closed
We enjoy poems of all styles: formal, free-verse, metered, non-rhyming, experimental, nostalgic, political, erotic, abstract, lyrical, etc. We don’t censor or shy away from ‘tough topics’, however we do draw the line at poetry that discriminates against our fellow humans. Please keep in mind that the poetry manuscript should have some unifying theme or topic, and yet each poem should be strong enough to stand on its own merit.
