New Opportunity for Erasure Poetry Writers!

We’re proud to announce that in addition to the two online publications and the two handmade chapbooks Fermata puts out yearly, we’re also going to launch a once a year edition that focuses solely on erasure poetry.  We’ll call the issue  ”    mata      ing”.  (Get it?  An erasure of Fermata Publishing?  Well, we thought it was clever…)  We’re taking submissions now and will launch the issue in February/March.

Our traditional issue is still set to launch December/January, and we’re still looking for those “I’m Sorry for Your Spouse” poems for our next chapbook!

So please send your work to us today!

Poetry Contest

Most of the time, my dyslexia doesn’t really get the better of me. I thank spell check for that one, but today as I was scrolling through the interwebs, I clicked on what I thought said, “18 I’m sorry for your wife poems.” However, when I started reading, I didn’t get the wonderfully snarky poems I had expected. I got lines like, “The phrase “I’m Sorry” you may agree/Has turned into a social amenity/We say “I’m Sorry” more than Brenda Lee.” I don’t even know who Brenda Lee is. 

Needless to say, the site was actually titled “18 I’m sorry poems for your wife.” I was incredibly disappointed. So I thought I would challenge you guys and gals to a little contest. Let’s write 18 I am sorry for your wife poems. Best 18 will be published in the next Fermata Publishing Chapbook. I am not setting a deadline for submissions because I don’t know what a response I will get, but I will post when I think I am done.

(And just to be more gender friendly, I will also accept I’m sorry for your husband poems as well. We’ll call the chapbook, “18 I’m Sorry for your Spouse Poems”)

Summer Online Issue Release!

Hey Sportsfans, and those who hate sports.  Our summer issue is complete, and we’re pretty pleased with it.  Take a look!  It’s so cool, it will save you on your AC bill this month.  Well, actually it won’t do that.  But it still is pretty snazzy.
