The Great American Poetry Show www.tgaps.net is a serial poetry anthology open year-round to submissions of poems in English on any subject and in any style, length and number. Email poems only by one attachment in just one email to info@tgaps.net or mail your poems with a SASE to The Great American Poetry Show, P.O. Box 69506, West Hollywood, California 90069. We prefer submission by email attachment but you can just email your poems. Do not send us more than one attachment per email and do not send us simultaneous emails. We have four editors and we can handle a lot of submissions. So please flood us with poems. If we do not accept your poems, please send us another group to go through. We will look at every poem you’ve written whether you are well-known or unknown. Simultaneous submissions and previously published poems are welcome. Response time is usually 1-3 months but can take much longer if we get sidetracked doing other things in our busy lives. If we find a poem or poems in your submission that we wish to consider, we will let you know and after that notice from us you may not hear from us for several months. If you submit poems to us and don’t hear back from us at all in three months, please contact us to find out what’s happening with your submission. Each contributor receives one free copy of the volume in which his/her work appears. Volume 2 is scheduled to appear towards the end of 2007 if we have enough good poems (about 100); if not, we will wait until we do. Please take a look at our website where you can preview Volume 1 of TGAPS and also purchase a hardcover copy for $35 or an ebook copy for $7.50. The ebook is priced especially low for use in poetry and creative-writing classes. Also take a look at our links page with hundreds of interesting sites to visit. We trade links. And please use our message boards where also you can have us post your poetry news, reviews, essays, articles, and recommended books. Larry Ziman
