2025 Concrete Wolf Chapbook Contest    

Submission Period: June 1 through July 31, 2025

Prize: 100 Copies of a perfect-bound chapbook, distributed by Ingram

Reading Fee: $10.

Submission Guidelines

Open to any poet writing in English with a continental U.S. UPS deliverable address.

We prefer chapbooks that have a theme, either obvious (i.e. chapbook about a divorce) or understated (i.e. all the poems mention the color blue). We like a collection that feels more like a whole than a sampling of work. We have no preference as to formal or free verse.

24 to 36 pages of poetry

Please number all your pages.

Please do not include any identifying information or acknowledgements in the manuscript.

Anyone with a personal relationship to the judge should refrain from entering.
