Blood Pudding Press is Now Accepting Poetry Chapbook Submissions! BLOOD PUDDING PRESS IS NOW ACCEPTING SUBMISSIONS FOR ITS 2015 POETRY CHAPBOOK CONTEST ! (from November 20, 2014 - December 20, 2014) Blood Pudding Press is seeking two new poetry chapbooks to publish in 2015. Before submitting your poetry innards for consideration, please read the details below to garner an idea of our desires. Blood Pudding Press is an itty bitty indie press handled by one woman (poet/publisher/artist Juliet Cook) and does not particularly care whether or not other poets are academic, non-academic, indie writers or part of any specific writing scene, as long as they are active in their own way – and passionately entwined in artistic creation, writing, and reading (more than just their own poetry). Blood Pudding Press cares about poetic individuals (and collaborators) with their own unique writing stylistics and experimentation. The press is open to different styles, but some of its primary interests involve mind and body, personal exploration, oddly emotional, confessional, dark/light hybrids, abstract art, quirks, contemporary horror alterations, kinky amalgamations, grotesque treats, and volatile hybrids. Blood Pudding Press likes the number 3 (and 13) so… Blood Pudding Press will consider poetry collections of 13-23 poems (less than 30 pages please). Some of the poems may be previously published, but the collection as a whole should not have been published elsewhere before. We will delightfully consider individual chapbooks and collaborative chapbooks by 2 or 3 different writers. If this piques your interest, here are the details of entering the Blood Pudding Press contest: -Submissions will be accepted from November 20, 2014 through December 20, 2014. - At least three finalists and two winners will be chosen. Each of the two winners will have their chapbooks published and will receive thirteen free copies of their chapbook. -There is a $5.00 entry fee per manuscript for entering this contest; this entry fee money will be used to purchase supplies for publishing and designing the winning chapbooks. The fee is payable to the editor’s Paypal account at Julietcoo@gmail (although Paypal is the preferred form of payment, if you do not have a Paypal account and/or would rather pay by check, you may contact the editor via that email address). -After paying your entry fee, please email your collection of poems to Julietcoo@gmail. Please write BPP Chapbook Contest – (your name) in the subject line. Include your manuscript title, your name, your contact info, and a brief bio in the body of your email. Attach the manuscript itself as a Microsoft Word Doc or Docx. -The winners will be announced sometime in January 2015. The first winning chapbook will most likely be published in early March. The second winning chapbook will most likely be published in late May or early June.
