Old Mountain Press will publish a
collection of poetry by a number of poets. Our goal is to gather
enough quality poems and flash fiction for an estimated 50 to 90 page book
with the theme to go with the cover (to your right): Anything about
the mountains---the people, the places, the activities, etc., nature, weather,
or spring. Would like to have as many poets involved as possible.
Requirements are below. Authors receive publishing credit and retain all
rights to their work but agree to the inclusion of their poem in this
collection of poetry.
- Author must have rights to the poem (previously published OK).
- Poem may not exceed 38 lines flash fiction may not exceed 325 words
(this includes title, spaces, and author's name).
- Poetry lines that exceed 55 letters and spaces will wrap and
count as two lines.
- Initially, only one poem/flash fiction per writer, so give it your
best shot:-)
