The Guidelines
EP is currently looking for one line submissions.
If you’re unsure of what the exquisite corpse game is, it will be helpful to read “About” first.
One line will be selected to contribute to a virtual exquisite corpse poem! Each time a line is chosen, it will be posted for the next person to respond to. Submissions are currently accepted on a rolling basis. At the end of the current poem, each author will be revealed for the line.
The current poem will be 7 lines, aka a demi-sonnet (see Erin Murphy’s discussion on the demi-sonnet).
There’s not a lot of rules to what you submit, but your line should be your own, original, and not generated from AI. Thanks.
Remember to only submit one line per email. You will find the selected line for the week under “The Current Line.” You are welcome to submit another line if your previous line wasn’t selected for the “current line.”
- To submit a line, simply email: ExquisitePoemsProject@gmail.com.
- Your subject should read: EP Line Submission. Besides your line, include what you want your line to link to: your website, a bio, a publication, etc.
