Hi, I've written some poetry and I wondered if anyone knew anywhere I could submit some of it, I thought somewhere like the Guardian might do a section or a broadsheet like that.

Anybody know anywhere?

Thanks
 
its not like that, is there no one whos written anythin and have found some nice places to send it to? not just poetry, short stories, novels, anythin really?

Would like to have somethin published.
 
thank you Zefan, I am indeed, not an emo and normally would jump at the chance to mock them too. Not all poetry is about sadness and sorrow.

I believe that would be a limerick, and I dont wish to be anything like Carol Ann Duffy, I've never met anyone who likes her.

I dont just write poetry, I've written a lot of other things, some have been published already, but that was through school.

Does no one know then?
 
fair point penski, I've spent a while looking for small competitions and alike, its not like I really want to publish a book with 75 poems in, just wouldnt mind putting it somewhere where it will be read by people I dont know, not here before you say anything.

some of the other things I've been writing I think will go to real publishers, I know I have ideas good enough but I dont know if I can pull off a narrative.

Will give it a go though.

Joined Deviant Art by the way, thanks to whoever suggested it.

If anybody else knows anywhere that I can submit to I'd appreciate it.

Ideally I would like a small magazine, monthly or bimonthly or whatever that publishes readers work.
 
Ok, I'll write one, before I start, I dont mind criticism (by all means, tell me how to make it better) but please dont take the mick, its not appreciated.

Only One Here

Theres only one here where there should be 2
Laughing and learning and loving and living
One half of a whole, one part of a piece
Theres only one here but there should be 2

Theres only one here where there should be 2
Growing together and in love forever
one shard of a pane, one scrap of whats left
Theres only one here, why isnt there 2?

Theres only one here where there should be 2
Sharing their lives and doing whats right
the shape of a shador, a hint of the past
Theres only one here, let there be 2

Took me 10 minutes last night at 3 in the morning, not that good I know but I'm knew at this and it makes me feel better, so it cant be that bad can it?

Np, i post a lot of my poetry on there and i seem to get some feedback which is always good, It is also scanned by businesses so if yours is outstanding then you may get contacted through it.

Good luck.
