Poetry Call: Tule Review

Saturday, January 2, 2010


Okay Sacramentans, the Sacramento Poetry Center is soliciting submissions for the June 2010 issue of their mag, the Tule Review! I think I will submit a couple poems. SPC is pretty open, it seems, in terms of what they're willing to accept, so if you don't feel you specialize in a particular kind or type of classifiable poetry, that's totally cool. If you just like to write, but don't write within a specifically identifiable framework, you should be alright. As per their page, they "consider all styles and forms" of poetry. (Oh yeah, they won't take haikus though!!!)

I encourage you to submit (look who's talking, coming from the person who's often looked at poetry magazines dubiously). There's nothing to lose. Even if you're a teaser poet, you may want to consider dropping a couple poems in the mail or e-mail.

So mark February 27, 2010 on your calendar, as this is the deadline for submitting work to the June 2010 issue of the Tule Review.

I wish you well!

The Oasis of My Nation: Poems by Simone Youngblood

"The Oasis of My Nation" is Simone Youngblood's debut collection of ten poems, released in September 2008. The work meditates on words, their unapparent immediacies and the relationship of both to god. Fundamentally, it might be called an "experimental" book of prayer and thanksgiving. The poems were mostly written from the point at which Simone recalls (mis)acquiring language to 2008. Based on responses Simone has received from patient people who have read "The Oasis of My Nation," I urge you to close your eyes and put on your reading glasses before embarking. Simone is a poet born and raised in Northern California. She recently received her Masters in English/Creative Writing. The book is $4 in person / $6 shipped / $6.50 purchased/shipped through Paypal Paypal: Please don't forget to include your shipping information in the notes portion of your payment. Bless you all.
