www.themaynard.org/Vol11No1/index.php
5. The editors of The Literary Nest are pleased to announce the publication of the spring issue. This issue is dedicated to Formal Poetry and features some finely crafted poetry that appeals to deep-seated emotions. Although the publication is not exclusively limited to women poets and writers, Pratibha, a long-time WOMPOnie, aims to offer a platform to under-represented voices and welcomes more women's voices in the journal.

6. Beltway Poetry Quarterly seeks poems for a special themed issue! Submit up to 5 poems between April 15 and June 1. Only women and non-binary poets who live or work in DC, Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, or Delaware are eligible to submit. There is no fee to enter. Poems must fit the theme “Envisioning the Future.”
In Black Radical Imagination, Robin D.G. Kelley notes that poets, writers, philosophers and visual artists are at the heart of all social movements. Kelley argues that artists helped us dream the world we were fighting for, rather than simply being mired in what we are fighting against. For Beltway Poetry Quarterly’s 2018 Summer Issue, we invite you to articulate how you envision the future. If we as artists are the architects of the future – what is the world your art seeks to create? How will we know when we are free? Share the poems that take us into a future of your own making.
Poems may interpret the theme widely. Volume 19:4 will be curated by Venus Thrash and guest co-editor Saida Agostini. The issue will be published on October 1 and be the current issue through the last day of December 2018. This issue is presented as part of the year-long international initiative, Year of Publishing Women.
