SHINE welcomes poetry on any subject, in any form, from any writer (published or emerging), anywhere on the planet.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: All submissions are first considered for a feature at SHINEonline series. If accepted, your work will then be considered for inclusion in the next appropriate issue of SHINE Quarterly. Please send 2-3 poems and a brief Bio, by email to: poetrybysamantha[at]protonmail[dot]com. Your work will be read with the utmost care. Responses are usually sent within 2-4 weeks, sometimes sooner. SHINE nominates for BOTN and Pushcart.
BOOK FEATURES & MISCELLANY: SHINE online series will happily feature your collection or chapbook! And, SHINE welcomes submissions of previously published poems (please specify in your submission so first-publish credits may be provided where due). Worth noting: submitting previous publishes or book excerpts may preclude you from consideration for prize nominations or inclusion in SHINE Quarterly.
SHINE's COMMITMENT TO HONESTY: In the spirit of honest poetry spoken from the heart, SHINE condemns plagiarism and does not accept AI generated poems. By submitting work to SHINE, you certify your words are your own. All rights revert to writers upon publish.
Thank you for considering SHINE as a home for your words.
