In case you didn’t know (or had forgotten), The Stroll of Poets Anthology 2022 will be our 30th Anniversary special edition!
As of today, January 7th, only 8 DAYS remain until the submission deadline of midnight on Saturday, January 15, 2022. The deadline applies to both poetry and cover art submissions.
To date we’ve received:
> 27 poems
> 21 cover art entries (from 7 different people)
For comparison, the 2020 and 2021 anthologies contained 100 poems and 92 poems respectively. It would be great to see comparable numbers for this 30th anniversary edition. I believe our members can rise to the challenge!

Please email your poem (with bio) and/or cover art submissions to: strollantho@writersguild.ab.ca
