The manuscript may include short excerpts previously published in a periodical, an anthology, or on the web but the manuscript as a whole may not have been published as substantially the same work. Proper attribution must accompany previously published work.

Simultaneous submissions are accepted but you MUST notify Red Mountain immediately and withdraw your work at once if the work is accepted elsewhere.

No purchase is required to submit your work but we hope you will read the books, available at your public library and independent bookseller and our website, https://www.redmountainpress.us, Our books are distributed by http://www.spdbooks.org. Red Mountain Press, of course, does not discriminate on any ascriptive basis (i.e., gender, nationality, race), but is very discriminating in choosing the books it can publish.
