We have thrown open the window for our annual Keystone Chapbook Series reading period. For the month of June, series editors Jeff Walt and Karen J. Weyant look forward to reading manuscripts from all poets with a Pennsylvania connection. Please click here to read full guidelines for our longest-running series!
Because we received no manuscripts through May 30 of this year, we have shifted the reading period to November. We hope that this will provide sufficient time to better spread the word and generate interest in this series. The first two selected chapbooks are scheduled for publication this September. We are very open to dialogue about this series and are actively looking for ways to better promote it. If you are interested in being a series reader or have any comments or suggestions, please write to us at sevenkitchenspress at gmail dot com.
Our fourth title of the year is Carolyn Oliver’s Night Ocean, selected as Number 17 in our Rane Arroyo Series. Please join us in welcoming Carolyn to the Seven Kitchens family.
We’re thrilled to announce the selection of two manuscripts for publication in our Allison Joseph Chapbook Series: Allison Joseph has selected Other Bombs by Paloma Martinez-Cruz of Columbus, Ohio and Wordsongs for Grandmas by Asani Charles of Dallas, Texas. Both chapbooks will be published in summer of 2023.
Please join us in congratulating these poets and their work!
