The Cape Rock Submissions
The Cape Rock appears twice a year.
- Contributors’ names and complete addresses should appear in the upper right-hand corner of each submission.
- We publish poetry; no restrictions on subjects or forms, but we prefer poems under 75 lines. Our criterion for selection is the quality of the work.
- No sentimental, didactic, or “cute” poems.
- All contributors are paid in copies.
- We do not accept previously published material.
- The Cape Rock retains first printing rights, then rights revert to the author. The Cape Rock should be credited as the original publisher if the work is subsequently placed elsewhere.
- Please note, The Cape Rock no longer accepts postal submissions. Please submit all work through our free submission manager.
