Poem Submission Deadline for Fall Workshop

Deadline for poem submission is September 15, 2025. To register, email your poem to ipa@iowapoetry.com with Fall Workshop in subject line. Be sure to include your name, address and phone number. This workshop is free to IPA members ($10 for non-members which will include a 1-year IPA membership).

As you consider which poem you might submit (any subject in good taste, any form, 20-line limit), remember you will benefit most if you 1) send a poem that you are struggling with, not a "finished" piece; 2) come prepared to learn from comments about others' poems, too; 3) know that comments by either critics or workshoppers can be sifted and applied, or not, as YOU choose. It's your poem!
