Share your voice with Austin Poetry Review
Austin Poetry Review welcomes thoughtful contributions from poets, critics, and literary thinkers. Whether you’re submitting a book review, poetry reading video, participating in Poetic Discourse, or hoping to be a featured poet, we invite you to join our growing poetry community in Bat City.
1. Poetry Book Reviews
We’re looking for reviews on poetry collections published within the last three years. Please send your book review as an attachment to austinpoetryreview@gmail.com with the subject line “Poetry Book Review.” In the body of the email, include a brief bio and a link to the book being reviewed.
2. Poetry Videos
We’re looking for videos of poets reading their own work. Please send a video of you reading one poem as an attachment to austinpoetryreview@gmail.com with the subject like “Poetry Video.” Cover letters are appreciated, and please include a bio as well as an acknowledgement if the poem has been published.
3. Poetic Discourse
Austin Poetry Review will be sharing your poetry thoughts as part of our new series Poetic Discourse.
This month, we are asking the following questions:
- Is the rise of “Instagram poetry” democratizing the art, or diluting it?
- Is poetry becoming overly obsessed with identity, or is identity its truest ground?
- Do you write more for other poets or for a broader readership?
Feel free to answer all questions or to pick one or two. Please send your answer(s) to austinpoetryreview@gmail.com with the subject line “Poetic Discourse” and include a bio.
4. Contributor Rights
Austin Poetry Review Journal acquires First Serial Rights for accepted work. After publication, rights revert to the contributor. Contributors may republish their work with Austin Poetry Review credited as the initial publisher. All accepted work is published online and often promoted on our social media.
