Call for poetry submissions from Bostonians

Boston-area poets PLEASE SUBMIT POEMS to LOCUS POINT by May 30 to [email protected].

LOCUSPOINT IS:
A community-centered approach to poetry publishing: Each edition of LOCUSPOINT is built on a set of cities or regions. Guest Editors in each location are tasked with locating poetry community within their areas to whatever extent or degree they experience it by selecting seven poets whose work they want to highlight. Each poet contributes five pages of poetry to the city. The Guest Editor writes an introduction to his or her selections to comment on the poetry scene where they live.

A resource for poets: LOCUSPOINT is always interested in exposing the work of poetry gears across the country; to that end, each edition will feature a set of community links and poetry resources for each city or region. Poets seeking community can come to LOCUSPOINT and make connections—find services, publishers, poets, editors, classes, community centers, and so forth.
