SPR Submissions

Southern Poetry Review welcomes previously unpublished poetry submissions from all writers. We read year-round and respond within three months.

We consider poems published online or posted there as “previously published” work. Submit online by filling out the form below with appropriate attachment. Please note that submissions are limited to five poems (1 file), and should not exceed ten pages. Poems should be submitted in a single file, with poems separated by titles or page breaks. Include all writer contact info on the first page of the submitted file and indicate simultaneous submissions.

Please ensure that you set your e-mail spam filter to allow mail from both southernpoetryreview.org, and editor@southernpoetryreview.org; otherwise notification regarding your submission may be marked as junk mail.
