### Submissions Open for Spring 2023 A reminder that *The Pierian* reads completely blind and does not use cover letters. Our software scans your uploaded documents and formats each poem to preserve your line breaks, bolding, and italic, but standardizes font. If you submit more than one poem, our editorial engine randomizes the order in which we read them to preserve your anonymity and ensure each and every poem is given fair consideration. Submissions that break anonymity are returned. We're not aware of any other journal that goes to similar lengths to level the playing field. Read the latest issue to see what sort of stuff we're taking.
