THE MFA SCHOOL:
A call for submissions was sent to every MFA writing program in the country requesting one poem only from any student currently enrolled. We received over 200 submissions (via email) from 57 writing programs. Five poems were selected from five poets to be included in this issue. One story was solicited to provide some balance.
This issue also contains commentary and an editor’s note which address the question of what it means to be an American poet. What it means to be in The MFA School.
IN THE MFA SCHOOL ISSUE:
Kaj Anderson-Bauer, J. R. Bouchard, Jen Coleman, Kevin Finn, Jess Quinlan, Ed Sanders, Todd B. Stevens.

Submissions are read year round. A response is only guaranteed if the work is accepted.
We make no claims about “simultaneous submissions.” Submit your work wherever you want, silly!
After three weeks, if you have not heard from our staff, you may inquire (via one email) on the status of a submitted work.
Send all submissions (five to ten pages of poetry, one story or one essay) to uspocobooks@gmail.com.
Include current month, genre and writer’s last name in the subject line.
Submissions may also be considered for publication @ ManuFacturedArtists.com, a blog of the arts.
Do not include “contributor’s notes” or bios, for we do not publish them.
