How do you go about submitting poetry to Hallmark Greeting cards? Or other such places?

Question

Just looking into submitting some of my poetry to different places, wondering if anyone has any helpful info! Thanks :)

Answer 1

Hallmark has full time writers to do the poetry, but you could submit your poems to magazines. Some of the magazines will announce competitions as well. Any other competitions might not be legit. Here's one magazine but I warn you, if you use the Victorian techniques like rhyming, they'll just laugh at you. Emulate the poems they already publish.

Answer 2

Hallmark doesn't accept submissions. American Greetings does. I don't think they pay very well, but if you don't care about that, you could try there.
