Old Mountain Press  will publish a collection of poetry and short shorts by a number of writers.  Our goal is to gather enough quality poems and short shorts for an estimated 50 to 90 page book with the theme to go with the cover (to your right):  Anything relating to  oceans, lakes, rivers and the people, places, activities, and things that celebrate that part of our beautiful country. Would like to have as many writers 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, but not in an OMP anthology).

  • Poetry lines that  exceed 47 letters and spaces will wrap and count as two lines.
