Pavement Saw Chapbook Contest 
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 
   
  Everyone is allowed to submit regardless of previous publication history. 
All entrants are mailed two free chapbooks or a full length book either of which is the cost of the entry fee, if you have a preference on what we should send, let us know.   The chapbooks are published in an edition of 400 copies. While chapbooks rarely receive exposure, we are the _only_ press that has recently had our chapbooks reviewed in Poets and Writers, Publishers Weekly, The Georgia Review, Small Press Review and many others. Previous winners have had subsequent full length books published by a bevy of publishers including University of Georgia, Hanging Loose Press, Curbstone Press, Cleveland State University Press, Bear Star Press, and Blazevox Books. 
   
    $500 and 50 copies of the winning chapbook will be awarded for the finest collection of poetry received. Submit up to 32 pages of poetry. Include a cover letter  with your name, address, phone number, e-mail, publication credits, a brief biography and the title of the chapbook. Include a cover page with your contact information and the chapbook title. Include a second page with the chapbook title only. Do not include your name on any pages inside the manuscript except for the first title page. No need for a contents page. All chapbooks are selected anonymously. Entry fee: $12. 
   
    Make all checks payable to  Pavement Saw Press. Every entrant will receive the entry fee in our books which we will pay to mail. Do not include an SASE. All manuscripts will be recycled.  Manuscripts will be considered until December 30th, 2006 for the prize. This year the editor will be the judge and, as it should be, he promises not to chose former students, former or potential sexual partners, press interns, or people that can make him famous.
