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 submission in the subject line and then send your previously unpublished poems in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
