The Stenen Press Award 2022: Submit Now!
It's not too late! Deadline extended to July 15th
We welcome non-English-language writers to submit their manuscripts for the second annual Stenen Press Award. We seek poetry and short-form literary writing of all kinds and are eager to hear from writers who would like to see their work translated and set into a richly visual book. The winner receives a $2000 award and publication of their book.
The jury is grateful and excited for the opportunity to engage thoughtfully with your work.
- Do you write in a language other than English?
- Do you have a complete, original manuscript?
- Do you want to have your work translated and set into a richly visual book?
- Do you want to win $2000 USD and publication of your book?
If you answered YES to all four questions, we invite you to submit your book for the Stenen Press Award.
We seek poetry and short form literary writing of all kinds.
The submission period begins on May 1 and closes on June 30 at 11:59PM EST.
The winner will be notified by September 1 via email.
There is no cost to submit your work.
Please contact us with any questions!
Your manuscript must be complete, be original work, and be in a language other than English. Manuscripts are usually between 20–80 pages. Submissions must also include a sample of the original manuscript (25%) translated into English. These translations, which can be sampled from any part of the book, should be representative of the project as a whole.
Please note that Stenen Press does not accept submissions outside the Award period.
