We are thrilled to announce the selections for this year’s Rane Arroyo Series. Once again, we have selected three manuscripts from a very strong group of finalists. Congratulations to Marisa Tirado, for How to Make an Adobe Brick; James D’Agostino, for Gorilla by Jellyfish Light; and Kelly Rowe, for Child Bed Fever. Their manuscripts will be published later this summer.

Special thanks to Mark Ward, who served as a guest reader this year.

We hope you will support these poets by purchasing and reading their work. Review copies will be available; please email for details.

We will begin reading manuscripts for the 2022 Rane Arroyo Series on October 1.

UPDATE: Due to circumstances beyond our control, we will no longer be publishing Marisa Tirado’s manuscript.
