We look for chapbook manuscripts that feel more like cohesive collections than a potpourri of poems.

We like poetry that invites the reader into the conversation.

Send between 20 and 26 pages of poetry, any style/form, no more than one poem per page, plus a table of contents and acknowledgements (if applicable). Please use 12pt type using Times New Roman. Number all your pages.
Include a cover sheet with title and author information (including email and phone).
In your cover letter please let us know how you will market your chapbook, if it is accepted.
Simultaneous submissions are okay. Notify us by email if you need to remove your chapbook from consideration.
Authors whose manuscripts are selected for publication will receive 25 copies of a saddle stitched, professionally designed chapbook. Chapbooks will be available to the public for sale on Uttered Chaos. website. Authors will receive notification by e-mail in the fall.
