I've never submitted a poem for publication or a contest before, and I have some questions about it.
There are two contests I am entering and neither of the publications have submission requirements other than putting name, address, etc on a cover letter.
I do not know what font or font size to use, I am only guessing that I should not double space, don't know what to do about margins, and, most of all, I do not know what to do about poems that are more than a page long. I can submit 3 poems, all my poems are more than one page (which is fine with the contest). Should I staple the pages? Number the pages with footers and also put the title in the footer without stapling? What should I do about this?
any help is needed, thanks everyone!
