Each November, we look for one or two poetry manuscripts to publish in our Allison Joseph Series, featuring BIPOC women writers. There are no restrictions on content or form. Please check our complete guidelines and send us your best work!

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.
