Last call on awards nominations
Every year, the Science Fiction & Fantasy Poetry Association (SFPA) members nominate poetry books and chapbooks for the Elgin award. Named after SFPA founder Suzette Haden Elgin, this award celebrates collections published in the prior two years. Yay spec poetry!
Psst–if you are an SFPA member, you can nominate now through the end of May.
Even more fun, anyone can go to the lists of nominees to grow your reading list of speculative poetry! I’m delighted that my own chapbook has been nominated, as well as books/chapbooks from many other fantastic poets, including some of my fellow Island of Wak-Wak authors! You can preview the TOC and seven poems (audio, text or video) from my chapbook: The Women of Myth, 38 poems, 39 pages of poetry, published 2025. Island of Wak-Wak.
