This year we received 81 poems from 53 poets.

Of these 53 submissions, 14 were from people who had never sent us work before – a record.

Submissions came from Cashmere, Chelan, Cle Elum, East Wenatchee, Ellensburg, Kennewick, Leavenworth, Malaga, Naches, Richland, Roslyn, Selah, Tonasket, Twisp, Wenatchee, Winthrop and Yakima.

A professor in Texas who teaches language and literature shared that he likes the simplicity and honesty of The Shrub-Steppe Poetry Journal, and that the poems stay with the reader.

Since 2019, The Shrub-Steppe Poetry Journal is the only all-poetry publication serving Central Washington.

It is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
