CRWROPPS Post: Brittingham & Pollak Poetry Prizes: Deadline 9/15.

7 Days Left: Submit to the Wisconsin Poetry Series! Writers! You've got just one week to submit your manuscript to the Brittingham & Felix Pollak Prizes in Poetry. This year's $1,000 prizes will be judged by National Book Award Finalist Carmen Giménez Smith. Any poet with an original, full-length, yet-to-be-published collection is eligible. Each manuscript will be considered for both prizes, and the winners and up to three other finalists will have their books published as part of the University of Wisconsin Press's Wisconsin Poetry Series. This year's submission deadline is Tuesday, September 15. Before visiting our Submittable page, please assemble a single pdf including a title page, a table of contents, your poems, and (optionally) an acknowledgments page listing any magazines or journals where the submitted poems may have first appeared. Your name and contact info should not appear anywhere in the document, or in the pdf file name. Manuscripts should be fifty to ninety pages in length on 8.5" x 11" pdf pages. Simultaneous submissions are permitted, as long as the author agrees to withdraw the manuscript via the submissions manager if it is accepted elsewhere. If you have any questions, please first consult our FAQ. If you don't find your answer, query Series Editors Sean Bishop and Ron Wallace at poetryseries@english.wisc.edu.
