To celebrate the launch of the
new website for the Mimesis poetry journal, we're running a miniature chapbook competition. Details are as follows:
A chapbook is a small collection of poems that complement each other in some way -- whether by direct narrative relationship, or simple thematic links.

A maximum of 15 poems or (reasonably sized) pages, whichever is shorter. Minimum of 10.

Entries should be in PDF format. If pressed, we will accept .DOC as well.

We invite you to lay out your chapbook however you choose. Be creative! You can include illustrations, formatting -- anything you like, really.

Material previously published in journals is acceptable. Poems must not have appeared in books or pamphlets, however (except anthologies).

Entries should be emailed to chapbooks@mimesispoetry.com by midnight GMT on 30th of June 2008.

Entries will be judged by all the Mimesis staff: `
PoeticWar, `
bananaprincess, *
Negated, ~
Boogster and Todd Swift. We will be looking for cogency between the poems and some experimental thinking.

The best entrant will receive a three-issue subscription to Mimesis. The best five will be published online on the Mimesis site, and extracts will be published in the journal itself (of which the poets will naturally receive contributors copies).

Have fun! If you have any questions, feel free to ask below and we'll do our best to respond.
Needless to say, if anyone thinks they can help out in any way (prizes, pimping, or anything you like, please do send us a note or message below).
It's also important to understand that this competition is open to anybody -- whether they have dA accounts or not. Because of this, please
include your dA user name with your submissions so that entries can be properly tracked and prizes properly awarded.

Please note that your submission to this competition must be
exclusive to this competition; i.e., you
cannot submit to both this and another chapbook competition (since we ask for first online publication rights for the collections, should they win/shortlist/etc). Thanks!

order the smexilious combination of black/white witticisms in batches of a thousand words complementing the plethora of shining images breathed into the blown-glass of poetry that is | mimesis | here.
