Knockout Closed to Submissions Over the Summer

Dear Knockout Readers,

We've been getting lots and lots of submission, which is fantastic, but Knockout is a
two-man ship. (Perhaps a dinghy?) Jeremy and I therefore need the summer to focus on getting Knockout #3 out on time (Fall of 2009)and we need to go on a promoting binge for the 2009 International Reginald Shepherd Memorial Poetry Prize, which has a deadline of August 31, 2009.

For this reason, Knockout will not be considering unsolicited submissions from June to August this year. Any submissions received during this period will not be read, and we'll delete them. We'll begin taking submissions again on September 1.

Of course, rest assured that we will be accepting entries for the 2009 Reginald Shepherd Memorial Poetry Prize. For guidelines, see www.knockoutlit.org/rsprize.htm.

Thanks for the submissions and for helping make KO great.
