Submissions will be paused until mid-October, 2024

Now open for submissions.

One of our poems has been selected for inclusion in the Best of the Net, another was a finalist, and two made it to the final round of consideration for the Pushcart Prize anthology. We have published work by a Pulitzer Prize winner, MacArthur Genius Grant awardee, and National Book Award finalists, as well as first timers.  Send us your single best poem.

Email all submissions to onejacar at gmail dot com.

Submit only one poem per issue via email. In the ‘subject’ field put your last name and the word Submit (ex. Krawiec Submit).

Do not attach your poem as a separate file. Copy your poem into the body of the email, followed by a 50 word Bio.

Poems must be previously unpublished.  Simultaneous submissions accepted.

One will not publish according to a strict schedule.  Each issue will be released as soon as the editors have found 21 poems they like.

Reading time varies, but plan on hearing back  in 3 months. Copyright reverts to author upon publication.
