Foetry: American Poetry Watchdog

Exposing the fraudulent "contests."

Tracking the sycophants.

Naming names.

Congratulations to Christine Scanlon who is Editorial Staff at LIT, published at the New School in NYC, where she got an MFA. She is the winner of the 2003 Barrow Street Press Book Contest. The judge was David Lehman, Editorial Advisor for LIT and faculty at the New School. If you like wasting money, send your check and manuscript to Barrow Street Press, which is *surprise* in NYC too.

Download and send a void check to this contest.

If you entered the 2003 contest, please contact Barrow Street and ask for your money back. Then file a complaint with the New York Attorney General.
