Nostrovia! Poem of the Month

A project of Nostrovia! Press (see other related projects).

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

About

“Nostrovia” is the English mispronunciation of the Russian word for cheers. It is used as English slang for “let’s get drunk!” and as a common drinking toast. Nostrovia! Poetry is a publishing press dedicated to promoting poets and writers through zines, contests, nano poem collections, blogs, and other online medians. This particular contest chooses a winner every month, and spends the following month promoting them online. Unlike the previous weekly contest featured here, there is a prize for the winner, and that is a piece of literature shipped to the winner. Check the website for this month's prize.
