Please join us in welcoming Jennifer Moore to the Seven Kitchens family: her chapbook, Smaller Ghosts, is set for release on April 25, but you can order it now! A beautiful, haunting series of sixteen centos with source texts ranging from Shakespeare and Donne to Dara Wier, Claribel Alegría, and Afaa Michael Weaver. Cover art by our favorite digital artist, Paul Bilger.
Just a reminder that we are now reading manuscripts for the Robin Becker Chapbook Series through May 15. This year, series editors Crystal Boson and Ron Mohring are joined by co-reader Steffan Triplett. We want to read your queer work!

For everyone who’s ever trusted me to read their poems–for everyone whose work I’ve published–for every person who’s supported Seven Kitchens Press by purchasing our chapbooks or sharing our calls for manuscripts or purchasing even one chapbook–I thank you.
Feast your eyes on the fresh, new covers for this year’s Summer Kitchen Series! These hot, limited-edition chapbooks will be out in just a few weeks, and they’re expected to sell out fast. Please welcome to the Seven Kitchens family (left to right) Jill McCabe Johnson [Pendulum], Alyse Bensel [Lies to Tell the Body], Beverly Voigt [Woman of Salt], Scott Honeycutt [Twelve Miles North of the Ohio River], and Jacob Budenz [Pastel Witcheries].
