Heads up. Chapbooks!

Get your manuscripts ready. We’ll be officially announcing PANK’s first chapbook contest sometime in August, deadline October (probably), winner announced in November, with a release coinciding and packaged with PANK 4. Expect a small entrance fee to help us cover some of the cost, though we’re working on weeding out this small nasty tidbit. The tentative plan is to package the winning chapbook together with the release of PANK 4, so your work will be benefitting from our existing distribution network (which sounds WAY more impressive than it is). Swanky design and production quality. That’s right, swanky. 25-50 pages of whatever you want to write about, in whatever form you want to put it in, so long as it fits into 25-50 pages and is so friggin’ awesome that it makes us want to weep and lie down with it in the grass and kiss its supple pages. More details, including complete submission guidelines, to come. Stay tuned.

And don’t forget about the 1,001 Awesome Words contest!
