Fifth Stanza Press is Accepting Full-length Poetry Manuscripts

Fifth Stanza Press is dedicated to publishing debut and second collections of poetry by writers in midlife or later. The open reading period for our first publication will run from May 1 through July 31, 2026. All poets will receive a response by the end of October. The selected manuscript will be announced in the fall and published in early 2027. The poet chosen for publication will receive author copies and an honorarium. Find more info about our submissions guidelines and a link to our Duosoma submissions page at www.fifthstanzapress.com/submissions.
