How to submit
Process
Submission Guidelines for Journal: Send us up to five pages of work. If your work is in another format (such as video), send us what you feel is the equivalent of five pages worth of work. A cover letter is optional, as is a bio. A lack of either will not impact our decisions. If you wish, you may use the cover letter field to give us context for your entry, provide instructions on how to view the piece, or to tell us more about yourself or your work. Simultaneous submissions are fine. Let us know if your work is accepted elsewhere. There is no need to anonymize your submission; we do not redact poets’ names during our adjudication process. We accept translations. We do not require that the original text be published alongside your translations (though we do welcome it) but you must provide proof that you have permission to translate the work. We will notify everyone of our decision in advance of our publication of the issue. We regret that we are not presently able to pay our contributors.

Additional info
We seek work that resists, interrogates, or experiments with form. Words that describe work that we (editors) have previously enjoyed and may wish to publish (non-exhaustive): poetry, intermedia work, visual and concrete poetry, essays, video poems, translation, hybrid forms, new media, hypertext works, poetry games, poetry in the expanded field, poets’ theater, sound. If your work isn’t described by any of the words above but you still think it might make sense for Ghost Proposal, feel free to send it.
