Poetic Matrix Submissions
     Submissions for books
     Submissions for our
online periodic letteR


As a small press we are very selective about what books we publish.  Please look over our publications and this
website before submitting.  We are happy to look over good quality, well written poetry but I must tell you we only
publish 3-5 books per year.  Particularly look on the website under PM Archives and read
Why Do This? before
submitting, it will give you a statement about why we started Poetic Matrix Press.  To a large extent we look for
poetry that has turned the corner and gone from being caught in the wreak of one's life to a more Buddhist
understanding.  

Every two years we place a call out for manuscripts for our
Slim Volume Series.  Recent publications include: The
Unequivocality of a Rose
by Joel Netsky and Change (will do you good ) by Gail Entrekin.  The Slim Volume Series is
the primary vehicle for choosing new manuscripts.  A new call for manuscripts will come out in 2008.

We publish our
online periodic letteR about 2 times a year (it is periodic after all).  To send poems via email to this
site, re-type and e-mail without any spaces to: poetic matrix @ yahoo . com.  Email is the best way to present what
you are doing, 3 to 5 pieces is appropriate. We only accept pieces in the body of the email, we
will not open
attachments
as they are too time consuming for the number of submissions we receive (please make sure you create
line breaks in the email so the formatting remains).  Please include a short bio with the submission.

All submissions received, either specific to the
online periodic letteR or book submissions, will be reviewed for
submission to the
online periodic letteR.

Because we are a small press please be patient, we will respond but it may take some time.
If poets and lovers of poetry don't
write, publish, read, and purchase
poetry books then we will have
no say in the quality of our
contemporary culture and no
excuse for the abuses of language,
ideas, truth, beauty, and love
in our cultural life.
