GUIDELINES FOR SUBMISSION

Manuscripts must be previously unpublished. Some or all of the poems in the collection may have appeared in periodicals, chapbooks, or anthologies, but these must be identified.

1. Manuscripts should be typed, with pages consecutively numbered. Clear photocopies are acceptable. Manuscripts must be at least 48 typed pages; we prefer a length of 60 -100 pages but will also consider submissions falling outside this range.

2. Please submit your manuscript as loose pages held only by a removable clip or rubber band and enclosed in a standard manilla file folder. Do not staple or bind your manuscript.

3. Entries should include two title pages, one with author's name, address, phone number, and e-mail address (if available), and one with no author information. Author's name should not appear within the manuscript.

4. Entries must include a table of contents and a separate acknowledgments page (or pages) identifying prior publication credits.

5. Submissions must be postmarked by December 31. Simultaneous submissions are permitted, but the University of Tampa Press must be notified immediately if the manuscript is accepted elsewhere.

6. Include a nonrefundable handling fee of $20.00 for each manuscript submitted. Make check or money order payable to "University of Tampa Press".

7. The winning entry will be announced in Spring/Summer, together with a list of finalists. Enclose a stamped, self-addressed postcard for notification of receipt of manuscript, and a stamped, self-addressed envelope for notification of contest results. No manuscripts will be returned. All contestants enclosing SASE will be notified following the final selection.
