Chapbook Poll Voting Results: LET'S DO IT!

In January, Blast Furnace posted a poll to garner reader feedback about the possibility of a future chapbook contest, to be sponsored by the literary journal.

The question: If Blast Furnace initiated a chapbook competition with a reading fee, would you submit? The three (3) possible choices were:

A - Yes
B - No
C - Depends on the prize

Of the responses received, only 12% voted 'No,' 40% voted yes, and 50% wanted an incentive, voting 'Depends on the Prize.'

As a result, we are beginning to create a plan for a chapbook contest for 2012, in hopes it will generate enough interest and submissions to warrant an annual occurrence.

We thank you, once again, for participating in our polls.
