*Submissions for V4 No 3 CLOSED!*
Now accepting submissions for V4 No 4-- FALL 2008--send them in!
4th issue of our 4th year!
Main Channel Voices (MCV)
Seeks to satisfy the ache of poets looking for a "Dam Fine"
showcase for their work.
Please--check
out our current issue now! Each issue is a bit different
(but consistently terrific!)
and the selections we offer on-line reflect the
range of the submissions. Feel free to read through
several issues to get
a good feel for what we like, are looking for, AND, can offer you!
We live and publish in the river city (by Lock & Dam 5a) of Winona,
MN 55987
Exciting news! We got a write-up in
Poets & Writers Magazine!
Our Mission
We showcase accessible poetry, publishing an
eclectic mix of playful insights and serious commentary. All
genres, including prose poems
and short shorts, are accepted. Nothing overly sentimental or old-fashioned,
please. We DO have a quirky sense of humor
and are a bit soft-headed about river poems!
More than a magazine... UPDATED!
We feature samples from our print magazine on our online site. You may
also check out some poetry by the editors
(both published poets--really!) and some fellow
poets to get an idea of the kind of work we are seeking.
We are delighted that so many of our fine poets have several books to their
credit. Delighted in many ways.
One-- that so many people are reading and enjoying poetry. Two--that these "Dam
Fine" poets send their work to us.
Three--we can help promote their work even more by giving you the information on
our website!
Right now we will just be listing poets who have books that include work that
has been published
in Main Channel Voices. But as time allows, we will expand.
Books of Poetry You Don't Want
to Miss!
