CRWROPPS Post: Own Voices Chapbook Prize by Radix Media

I hope this email finds you and the members of your community well and safe.

My name is Meher Manda and I'm a poet and  editorial consultant with Radix Media, a completely worker-owned, independent publisher and printer based in Brooklyn, New York. We are currently accepting submissions to the debut Own Voices Chapbook Prize from emerging writers of color who haven't published a full-length poetry book. We are looking for work that is audacious and challenging, and are open to work that is multilingual, collaborative, self-translated, and hybrid. The wonderful Aria Aber will guest judge and pick two winners who will receive publication, $500, and 25 author copies from a limited print run of 250 copies. The deadline in May 31 with a possibility of deadline extension, given the present circumstances. We will be announcing the new deadline of June 15 in the coming days.

More information on the contest and how to submit can be found here: https://radixmedia.org/own-voices-chapbook-prize/

I am hoping you can share this information with writers of color in your program and community. We would love to consider their work.

Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank you.

Best,

Meher Manda,
Radix Media
