Trampoline A Journal of Poetry

About

Trampoline is a New Orleans-based journal of poetry. We veer towards the beautiful and strange. We want poems of anger and light. We want to be a space where the narrative, the lyric, and the experimental can mingle. We want poems that defy easy categorization. We want to be a home for poems that have a hard time finding a home. Give us your heart, your humor, your power, and we will give you our undying love.

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.
