Feedback for poc Poets

Evening the odds…

Zoetic Press is made up of people with a wide range of cultures, ethnicities, genders, ages, religions, experiences. We recognize that not all people are afforded equal opportunities, equal help, equal understanding. We’ve all experienced it firsthand.

Our Poetry Editors span three continents, with many poetic traditions and unique points of view. And they’re making themselves available to poets of color each month, to give guidance and feedback on their writing process.

Poets of color are invited to submit ONE poem, up to 50 lines, for consideration. Our editors will spend the month giving feedback and working with each poet, helping them make the most of their work and their talents.

There is no fee for this program, and accepted poets are not required to submit their work to NonBinary Review for publication, although they are welcome to do so.

Because of the labor-intensive nature of the process, the number of application slots is limited, and only two poets can be accepted. Those not accepted are welcome to try again during the next submission period.
