I’ve completed a poetry manuscript. Its original title was Man Sold Separately, but I’m now calling it Pull and Stitch the Flesh. After receiving quite a few rejections, I just found out that the book was named a finalist in the Poetic Justice Institute’s Editor’s Prize for a BIPOC writer. I didn’t win, but this news does give me hope for the manuscript. I’ve gone in and done some additional revisions on the poems this summer, and I’m confident that I’m getting closer to publication. Yay!
Congrats to the winner and the other finalists listed below. 🎉 🎊🍾🎈
