Submission Guidelines

Women Who Scream in the Dark is a poetry

Submit 1–3 poems (up to 60 lines or 1,000 words each). All styles welcome—free verse, hybrid, or lyrical micro-essays.

Please only send unpublished work. Simultaneous submissions are welcome—

just let us know if your piece is accepted elsewhere.

Contributors will receive a free copy of the 

anthology and opportunities to be featured.

Submit the form* when you're ready. Deadline: May 31, 2025
