Four Way Books is pleased to announce that the winning manuscript of the 2010 Four Way Books Intro Prize is How the Losers Love What’s Lost by Patrick Ryan Frank of Austin, Texas. The judge was Alan Shapiro. Mr. Frank’s book is scheduled to be released in the spring of 2012. He will receive $1000.00 and a reading in a Four Way Books sponsored series in New York City.

In 2011, we will read submissions from January 1 - March 31 through the Four Way Books Levis Prize in Poetry, open to all poets, regardless of their publication history. The judge will be Claudia Rankine.

Four Way Books editors also consider manuscripts outside of the contest each June. For information, please check our guidelines in December for the contest and in May for the June reading period.

Thank you to everyone who submitted for considering Four Way Books for your work.
