I’m the poetry ed at blankpages (www.blankmediacollective.org/blankpages)… I am looking for some new submissions and would be delighted if you could spread the word within the Manchester poetry community.

Here’s our submissions guidelines:

Blankpages is now accepting poetry submissions. We’re looking for talented writers with a unique style and ability to produce interesting pieces.

All lengths and forms are welcome, as are varying stylistic approaches. Word limit is down to you, but we’d ask that you discuss any works longer than 30 lines each with the editor. We’re looking for no more than 3 – 4 medium length poems; 2 maximum if larger in length.

New works are preferred, but previously published poems will be considered.

Proof reading is boring. We’d much rather spend time reading and enjoying your submissions. Please check work for spelling, grammar and punctuation errors before sending it in.

Please submit a short biography with your work so we can learn more about you as a writer.

Blankpages is dedicated to giving talented writers a platform to share their work – we love reading your submissions and will always try to respond with feedback.

If you’d like to discuss your work or would like some feedback before submitting, please feel free to get in touch – email editor@blankmediacollective.org, and put FAO Abby in your subject line.

Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to leave a comment. I of course really enjoy your work and I hope to be able to put as unique a spin on the essence of Manchester as you have.

Stop by anytime!
