We are interested in receiving manuscripts that are reflective of the theme, however you may define it.
Format will be 5 ½ by 8 ½ page size on 70 lb. stock and each book will be hand-stitched. We'll produce a first run of 300 copies and will keep open the option of a second printing. Published poets will receive 30 copies as payment and will be able to purchase additional copies at a 50 per cent discount, with no obligation to do so. Poets will provide FootHills Publishing with a list of individuals we can send notices of publication to. We will also send out publication press releases to the poet's local media sources.
Submissions will be accepted only through e-mail. We prefer manuscripts to be sent as an MS Word attachment. If this isn't possible then send the manuscript in the body of the e-mail. Please make sure your name, address and e-mail address are included on the manuscript. Please identify in some way that the submission is for the AWAY Series.
Please include a few lines or so about how you see your manuscript fitting in with the AWAY theme.
