About

The Off the Grid Prize recognizes the work of older poets and highlights important contemporary voices in poetry. We are looking for work by poets over sixty, ripened in craft and vision, and sufficiently sprightly to promote their work through readings and networks. Winners receive a cash prize and publication, promotion, and distribution of their book in print and audio formats.

Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for all submissions.
Limited Demographic: Submissions are restricted to people 60 years of age or older.

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.
