Guy Owen Prize deadline is May 31st, that's tonight!
Guy Owen Prize is named after a professor of English who produced many different types of literary works.
He was born in Clarkton, Bladen County, North Carolina, and grew up on a to***co farm. Although his college education was interrupted by three years as an army private in Europe during World War II, he ultimately earned his bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Although he never returned there to live, his Depression-era boyhood in the Cape Fear region, spent accompanying his grandfather to auctions and clerking at his father's general store, informed his writing, providing him with a lifetime of material for his fiction and poetry.

Art is long, and Time is fleeting,
And our hearts, though stout and brave,
Still, like muffled drums, are beating
Funeral marches to the grave.
- H. W. Longfellow

Since its beginning in 1958, the journal has published poets from all over the country, as well as publishing poets from abroad. A small sampling of poets published by SPR might include Betty Adcock, Chana Bloch, Michael Blumenthal, Billy Collins, Albert Goldbarth, Andrew Hudgins, David Kirby, Ted Kooser, Maxine Kumin, Heather McHugh, Robert Morgan, Sharon Olds, Linda Pastan, R. T. Smith, William Stafford.
The journal always has been based in the South, and its new home of Savannah, Georgia, continues that tradition. The journal’s name, however, signifies location for this editorial staff, more than it signals a regional sensibility (if there is such a thing). On the other hand, we encourage southern poets to consider us a receptive audience for their work; poetry that is recognizably southern sometimes has trouble finding a home in journals outside the South. We do not, however, encourage stereotypical southern material that is dealt with stereotypically. Above all, we are more interested in poems that handle language with care and scrupulousness than any particular subject matter or regional stance.
Submit to the Guy Owen Prize today. Deadline is May 31st.
