Additional info
Beginning with the fall 2023 issue, Acorn will consider work that has been self-published on social media or other uncurated online platforms. Please understand that Acorn is a highly selective journal that publishes only a small fraction of the excellent poems submitted for each issue. If your work is not accepted for publication, this does not reflect poorly on the quality of your poems!
