Monthly APW Guest Poets

Many of these poems first appeared for critique in the APW Forums. They are posted here so that you may continue the discussion.

Readers: Please review these guests' pages and send them your comments. As spam prevention is our main concern, APW does not provide a direct link to your email address. So that other poets may contact you, your email address appears in the following form:

Yourname (at) nameserver (dot) com
Therefore, APW's email address would appear as:
submitapw (at) gmail (dot) com

In this manner, a real person may contact you. Should you wish to contact authors indirectly through Social Media, APW will publish Twitter and Facebook names, when provided with poetry submissions. Poems appearing prior to October 2002 were published prior to the advent of Social Media.

Poets: The best way to receive comments on your work is to contact the poets appearing on these pages, through the means described above, and email them your comments and suggestions.

Send and ye shall receive.

Should you wish to submit poetry for consideration on this and the APW Forums Pages, please follow these Submissions Guidelines.
