P – Call for Submissions to FERAL. Theme: “Hunger”

General Submission Guidelines: FERAL: A Journal of Poetry & Art

We’ve made some changes to our guidelines so please read all the information below. 

What we are looking for: We want your brave, your pain, your love, your teeth, your howling beast. All styles, forms and schools of poetry are welcome.
Please note that at the core of both FERAL and Animal Heart press is love. Although we wish it didn’t need to be said, we will not accept any work that is racist, homophobic, sexist or discriminatory. We are committed to publishing a variety of new, emerging and established voices. Further, we are committed to inclusion and equity in publishing. We highly encourage submissions from underrepresented voices including, but not limited to: women, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and neurodivergent individuals. International submissions are welcome, but we are only considering work in English at this time; no translations.
FERAL nominates for the Best of the Net and the Pushcart Prize.

Submissions should be sent to: feralpoetryandart[AT]gmail[DOT]com
In the subject line of your email please type: LAST NAME – TYPE OF SUBMISSION (for example: GORDON – POETRY).
Cover Letters: We’ve heard you loud and clear about how daunting many of you find writing cover letters, so they are no longer required.
If you want to include a cover letter we’d like to know a little about you (this is not your bio but rather an introduction to you as a human/poet/artist). At a minimum, in the body of your email, please provide your name and preferred pronouns.

POETRY:
For poetry submissions, please submit 1-4 poems and attach your submission in a single document (doc. docx. pdf.) Please do not put your name or any identifying information on the submission. We will consider all forms of poetry including erasure poetry and visual poetry – surprise us!
