Victorian Violet Press is currently seeking submissions for issue 10, spring 2012.

Our taste in poetry is eclectic, but these subjects are preferred: inspirational, poetry for children, poetry about children,  nature and life. Formal and free verse are both accepted--we particularly enjoy metrical poems that have lyricism, originality, accessibility and beauty.

Poems should not be obscure or overly abstract and should have a strong element of rhythm and a strong metrical element whether they are free verse or formalist.

Send 3-5 poems pasted in the body of an email with your name in the subject line. Simultaneous submissions and previously published poems are fine. Please wait three months after your last submission before sending more poetry. Include a 3rd person bio no more than 100 words.

Victorian Violet nominates poems for Best of the Net and the Pushcart Prize.

e-chapbooks send 5-10 poems in a document file.
