Fourteen Hills is proud to announce the inaugural Stacy Doris Memorial Poetry Award. Guest judge is poet Chet Wiener. The winning poet will receive $500 and publication in the Spring 2014 issue of Fourteen Hills. There is no submission fee. Poems not chosen for the award will be considered for publication in Fourteen Hills.

Doris was always creating new worlds with her unexpected poetics. Following upon that spirit of creative invention and inventive creation; engaging wit and ingenious playfulness; discovery in construction; and radical appropriations based on classical forms, pastiche, and love: the Stacy Doris Memorial Poetry Award will be given for a poem with a truly inventive spirit.
