Radar Poetry
There are presently no open calls for submissions.
POETRY - GENERAL
We welcome submissions of poems during our two open reading periods: November 1 - January 1 and March 1 - May 1.
Given the high volume of submissions Radar happily receives, we can only read non-fee submissions at the beginning of each reading period. Please submit early to take advantage of this opportunity.
Once the free submission cap is reached, we will continue to accept $3.00 “Tip Jar” submissions for the remainder of the reading period.
Enhanced Feedback Option
For a fee of $25, you may request up to one page of feedback from the editors on your 3-5 poem submission, which will include notes on craft, content, and tone, as well as suggested revisions
Please note: We reserve the right to close our general submission categories early if we reach a certain number of submissions, in order to give each submission the time and consideration it deserves.
