PUBLISHING PROGRAM 2024
In March 2023 we released Winter/Spring 2023 Issue 22 — Red Wolf’s last thematic anthology after a 9 year run.
Our site shall continue to be a platform for poetry — Wondrous Leaflets anthologies (non-prompt based) and The World of Prompts (prompt-based anthology) and small digital collections by single authors. See submission details here. https://redwolfeditions.wordpress.com/
*
Our digital collections are published under the Red Wolf Editions imprint. All will be digital issues, no print copies:
The World of Prompts Anthology
Submissions open. We are inviting submissions for a prompt-based anthology from 1 April to 30 June 2024 with a target release in July 2024. Clearly include the prompt and its source in your submission. You can of course write your own prompt. If you would like a prompt site, you may wish to write to the prompts at https://imprompt.wordpress.com/ That is entirely optional. You can find prompts anywhere else. Or like I said, write your own prompt. For every contributing poet, one poem will be selected to feature an image alongside.
Submit to redwolfeditions@gmail.com.
Wondrous Leaflets Issue number 1 anthology
Submissions closed. We invited 1-2 poem submissions on a subject of your own choosing from 1 April to 30 April 2024. Selected poems were printed in the form of leaflets on this site. The leaflets were released on the Red Wolf Editions site (https://redwolfeditions.wordpress.com/blog/) from 1 April 2024 to 30 April 2024.
Wondrous Leaflets Issue Number 1: Released on 1 May 2024.
SINGLE AUTHOR COLLECTIONS
10-30 poems — Published as a single author collection (ongoing, send your manuscript to redwolfeditions@gmail.com).
Please note the following:
1) Your poetry collection will be published as a PDF issue at Red Wolf Editions site (https://redwolfeditions.wordpress.com/), available for all to download for free. We do not do print copies at the moment. If you want a printed book, do not submit here. If you want to showcase a very small selection of your poetry, this may be your place. Please do not submit if you intend to withdraw your submission later.
2) If you’re submitting your work here, do not submit it elsewhere. Do allow two to three months for consideration though you should hear from us sooner than that if your work is accepted. Please respect the time and effort put in to consider your work. If you do not hear within the time stated above, it means we’re not taking up your work and then you may submit elsewhere. If we’re interested you will hear from us fairly quickly within the time stated. Sorry, if you receive no response to your submission, it means we’re not taking up your work. No rejection letter will be sent.
3) Please cite publications where your poems have previously been published. However the majority of poems in the collection has to be new, unpublished material.
4) If you have a cover artwork proposal, kindly submit it together with your manuscript for consideration, subject to our approval. If not a cover artwork will be produced for your collection. The final artwork shall be at our discretion.
5) Please submit a bio together with your work.
You may email your manuscript for our consideration at redwolfeditions AT gmail DOT com. Thank you for submitting your work to Red Wolf Editions.
