Antiphon

Antiphon is a new online journal specialising in poetry from the UK and has been set up by two of the regular poets from the Bank Street Poetry Cafe, Rosemary Badcoe and Noel Williams.

Here's what they say about themselves:

We think there’s a gap in the market for a really good online UK poetry magazine. One that will publish a wide range of well-crafted, skilfully written poems, and not limit itself to any particular form or style: just exciting poetry. Hence our new magazine, Antiphon.

The first issue will appear this Autumn, with a new issue every quarter.

The core of the magazine is the poems. But we know most readers of poems are also poets. So we'll include features on poetry and poetic writing of current interest, and we'll also showcase the work of particular groups of poets. If you belong to a poetry group, or perhaps follow a creative writing course, let us know and we can publicise your best work and your events.

Some of the best poetry being written today struggles to find its audience - so we're also keen to publicise the work done by the many small presses that publish pamphlets and booklets of up and coming and established poets. We invite the editors to join our forum and discuss their poets and publications.

We also hope you'll let us have your opinions on the poems and articles and contribute to our discussions on what makes a successful poem.

They are accepting submissions, so here is the link for all the details you'll need to send in your work: http://antiphon.org.uk/index.php/submissions
