The Frost Place, a nonprofit center for poetry and the arts at Robert Frost's old homestead in Franconia, NH, in partnership with Bull City Press, has established a poetry chapbook fellowship. We invite submissions to the Eighth Annual Frost Place Chapbook Competition sponsored by Bull City Press.
In summer 2020, the winner's chapbook will be published by Bull City Press, and the winner will receive 10 complimentary copies (from a print run of 300), and a $250.00 stipend. The winner will also receive a full fellowship to attend the five-and-a-half-day Poetry Seminar at The Frost Place in August 2020, including room and board (a cash value of approximately $1,500.00), and will give a featured reading from the chapbook at the Seminar. In addition, the chapbook fellow will have the option to spend one week living and writing in The Frost Place House-Museum in September 2020 (peak leaf season in the White Mountains), at a time agreed upon by the fellow and The Frost Place. www.frostplace.org
