2018 Subbed In Chapbook Prize finalists announced
In early 2018, we launched our second annual Chapbook Prize, hoping to find the next book we would publish. We had an overwhelming response to the callout with more than 100 entries. We were staggered by the quality of the submissions received and after much deliberation managed to narrow the list of finalists down to 14.
All of the finalists' manuscripts are worthy of publication and the more funds received the more books we'll be able to publish! Donate here.
