call for submissions

[Taya Kitaysky]

As the Russian poetry editor for *Ice Floe,* an international journal of
northern poetry published by the University of Alaska Press, I'd like to
welcome any submissions of poetry from northern Russia--including poems by
poets based in Siberia or poems written in native Siberian languages. I'll
also be looking for translators to translate these poems into English, so
please contact me if you're interested in being featured as a translator in
the upcoming issue as well.

To learn more about the journal and submission guideliness, please visit *Ice
Floe*'s webpage <http://www.alaska.edu/uapress/ice-floe/> on the University
of Alaska Press website and see the official call for submissions below.

*Please send Russian submissions to me at takitaysky at alaska.edu* *by
November 1st* (disregard the email address and deadline in the call for
submissions below).

Also, please feel free to pass the below call for submissions along to any
poets or translators working in Greelandic, Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish,
or Finnish. They may submit to the email address posted below (
icefloe at uaa.alaska.edu).

Thank you!
