Facing Goodbye

a poetry anthology

Hello all!

The Wee Sparrow Poetry Press is delighted to open the submission period for our fourth (yes, fourth!!!) paperback print anthology. Editing and curating this publication will be the wonderful Mirjam Mahler and Jane Hanson. Please read the submission guidelines carefully before submitting your words. You can find the full guidelines on our website here.

"We are looking for poems that delve into what we feel when we face a goodbye, beyond the grief of loss or the relief of freeing yourself. 

Consider how letting a certain phase of your life go has affected you. Maybe saying a fond farewell to a certain type of behaviour or dependency.

We want to read about letting go of expectations and how goodbyes transform us."

- Jane & Mirjam

Happy writing!
