Reduce Your Pain Submitting

This group is for as many as 10 poets who actively submit their work to literary magazines. It's for poets who wrestle with the time and energy  submitting demands: selecting target journals; matching poems with target journals; keeping records of submissions, dates, acceptances, rejections; keeping information per target journals such as number of poems allowed per submission and method of submission, frequency of submission, etc., etc., etc.  

Age, gender, identity do not matter for membership because they matter to all of us all the time. 

If you're interested, please reach me via email (it's faster for me): rufuswright49@gmail.com and put "Poetry Submissions" in your subject line. Thanks.

In case you want to know more about me, I have been writing poems since college in the 70s which means that I am now in my 70s and still writing. In August 2025 I began intensely submitting to some 20 journals. To date I've had 9 of some 100 submissions accepted for online or print publication.  I wish I didn't have to invest so much left-brain time and energy on the administrative stuff that robs me of right-brain (and heart) time and energy to be writing.

I am spiritual, humorous, physical/physically fit and curious. Having grown up in eastern Texas and Louisiana, I was in the Northeast for 40 years. I am now happily in Central Texas.
