ABZ, A Poetry Magazine, is continuing its poetry prize for a first book of poems.

In 2007, David Baker selected “Postcard on Parchment” by Christine Stewart-Nuñez. That book has just been published and is available from ABZ Press, from your local bookstore or from an online source.

“We are looking for original poetry manuscripts between 48-80 pages. ABZ will publish the winning book. Heather McHugh will be the judge.”

McHugh served as a Chancellor of The Academy of American Poets from 1999 to 2006.

Send manuscript to: ABZ Poetry Prize, PO Box 2746, Huntington, WV 25727-2746.

Other important parameters for the prize appear in ABZ: A Poetry Magazine, Number 3, 2008, edited by John McKernan and James Raffle. The magazine is issued yearly.
