Crab Creek Review Call for Submissions
(www.crabcreekrevie w.org)
Special Editor's Portfolio edited by Guest Editor, Susan Rich
Theme: Ekphrastic Poetry
We begin with the visual. Ekphrastic poetry is a response in words to a painting,
photograph, dance, building, sculpture, Ikea catalogue, child's drawing, or bumper
sticker. An ekphrastic poem begins with inspiration from another piece of art and
with the intuitive understanding that art begets art. In a sense, the art object
becomes the rough draft of the poem.
We are looking for the best ekphrastic poems, 30-lines (or less) to showcase in
an upcoming issue of Crab Creek Review.
For this project, we are accepting email submissions to the email address below. To
submit to this special portfolio of ekphrastic poetry, write your name and title of the
submission in the subject line and then send your previously unpublished poems in
the body of an email to Editor, Susan Rich at: <duende341(at) yahoo.com> (replace
(at) with @)
Please send 3-5 poems at the most.
Also, include a short bio and contact info as well.
Deadline is May 31, 2010
