- Prose limited to 5000 words. Poetry limited to 3 poems (maximum 5 pages). Submissions that exceed these limits will be disqualified.
- Deadline July 1, 2011. Winners will be announced by December 31, 2011.
- Entry fee is $15 per submission. For an additional $5, you will receive a one-year subscription to the BLR. (Maximum: two submissions per person).
- Manuscripts are submitted electronically as a Microsoft Word document. Please combine all poems into one document and use first poem as title.
- Do not put your name on the manuscript document. (This will be entered separately on our website.) No cover letter needed.
- Work previously published in print or electronically will not be considered. (Please see footnote below for specific definition of “published.”)
- Simultaneous submissions are permitted, but we ask that you notify us immediately if your work is accepted elsewhere. We regret that there can be no refunds or substitutions for withdrawn work.
- Students/friends/colleagues/relations of a judge are not permitted to enter submissions to that judge's genre.
- BLR acquires first-time North American rights. After publication, all rights revert to the author and the work may be reprinted as long as appropriate acknowledgement to BLR is made. All entries will also be considered for regular publication.
- Due to administrative costs, if no entry fee is received, manuscript will be placed with general submissions. The entry fee may be paid online, by check, or by phone.
