New update to the UK poetry mags submissions list. Also Spring coming soon.

Yesterday I sent out the latest update to the magazines subs list, which if you’re on my mailing list you should have received, so let me know if not.

There are now 112 journals (print and online) on the spreadsheet – but of course I’m always open to suggestions of more to include. The spreadsheet contains all the magazine names, publishing frequency, submission page URLs, submissions window dates, how many poems to send and other criteria. I’ve also now replaced all those way-too-long submission page URLs with TinyURLs which means you can click straight through – no more broken links or cutting & pasting.

If you’ve subscribed since yesterday, I’ll be doing another mailout later today so you’ll get it then. If you know anyone who might find the info useful, please tell them to sign up today and they’ll catch the next mailout. The sign-up form is on this page.

Giveaway

Meanwhile, thank you to those of you interested in the free copy of Tamar Yoseloff’s Formerly – I put all the names in a bag and Nick drew out the winner, none other than…. Peter Raynard – nice one, Peter, and commiserations to everyone else.

Fundraising for The Trussell Trust – latest

I’ve been pledging £1 from the sale of each copy of my latest pamphlet WHY? to the Trussell Trust (working to end UK hunger) and today I was able to make a donation of £30. Thanks so much to everyone who has contributed to this. The pledge is ongoing if you haven’t ordered the pamphlet yet 🙂

More good news

It’s March. Spring can’t be far off, can it?

UK Poetry Magazines Submissions Windows – updated

poetry rejections

It’s ‘back to school’, and back to the submissions, folks … I’ve been updating my list and am just awaiting a couple of responses from magazine editors I’ve queried about their submissions windows.

SO, what’s new?

The list now contains detail of over 70 journals, of which:

NEW journals added this month: 6

Those with updated details: 23

Those with windows open now, some closing quite soon:  22

Those currently closed but opening in either October or November:  11

Those which welcome submissions at any time: 24

As ever, I’m grateful to people for telling me about amends, additions and so forth.

I’ll be sending it out tomorrow latest, as a PDF with clickable links to the submissions pages of each magazine’s website.

If you’re not on the emailing list for this and would like to be, either tell me in the comments below or drop me a line – robin at robinhoughtonpoetry dot co dot uk.

Happy submitting!

UPDATED – UK poetry magazines submissions list

window at chichester station

It’s that time again – time to update my PDF list of UK poetry magazines submissions windows, with live links to their submissions guidelines pages.

A couple of publications came off the list – Algebra of Owls has closed, and Tender seems to have been dormant for over nine months, so I took it off.

I’ll be emailing the updated list to everyone who requested previous versions. If you’re not on the mailing list but would like a copy of this one, please drop me an email (robin at robinhoughtonpoetry.co.uk).

What else is new in this version:

  1. twenty-five journals with updated information (highlighted in red)
  2. thirty-eight journals are OPEN for submissions now (some closing very soon though)
  3. a couple of journals will be opening soon – and some windows only open for as little as a week!

Good luck with those submissions.

Things move quickly in the magazine world so I thought I would update my spreadsheet quarterly.

This is the list of UK poetry magazines with live links to the submissions pages, details of submissions windows and general guidelines as published on their websites. As ever, I can’t claim it’s fully comprehensive, so feel free to let me know in the comments about any omissions or errors.

I’ll be emailing the updated list to everyone who requested the first version (August). If you didn’t see that, but would like a copy of this one, please drop me an email (robin at robinhoughtonpoetry.co.uk).

What’s new in this updated version:

  1. eight ten more journals added
  2. twenty-three journals with updated information
  3. eight nine journals with windows open NOW but closing soon

Time to get some poems out?? I know I need to!
