CRWROPPS POST: ETCHINGS PRESS 2020 BOOK PRIZES


Subject: ETCHINGS PRESS 2020 BOOK PRIZES--extended to Feb. 3


ETCHINGS PRESS 2020 BOOK PRIZES--extended to Feb. 3

Etchings Press, a student-run publisher at University of Indianapolis, welcomes submissions for its annual contests: a chapbook of poetry, a chapbook of prose, and a novella.

The deadline for all contests has been extended to Monday, Feb. 3, 2020.

Please submit through Submittable by Feb. 3 at 11:59 p.m. https://etchings.submittable.com/submit


UIndy graduate and undergraduate students will read the submitted manuscripts and choose a winner in each category. The students will then edit, design, publish, and promote the chapbooks and the novella. 

Students are interested in editing and publishing authors in our region. The students are using the 370 miles between Flannery O'Connor's Milledgeville, Georgia, and William Faulkner's Oxford, Mississippi, as the relative mileage for regional literature. Using UIndy's campus on the southside of Indianapolis as a starting point, that distance makes a circle which includes all of Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, and West Virginia, most of Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Missouri, and parts of Minnesota, Pennsylvania, New York, Georgia, Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, Arkansas, South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, and even Ontario. 

Each year, students will judge and publish one chapbook in poetry, one chapbook in prose, and one novella. Mixed genre and multiple author manuscripts are welcome. All topics/themes are welcome.
