London Poetry Systems welcomes many forms of submission. We publish new submissions. As yet we have the capabilities to publish poems sent in text, audio and movie format. The best way to submit is by email (Contact).

We aim to post for our readers, listeners and viewers a high quality selection of all types of poetry, from traditional verse to digital and sound poetry. We make our selection based on quality and interest..

We have a diverse group of external selectors who help us narrow down the submissions and counter any prejudices we might have. We’re all passionate about our own poetic area and fascinated by the possibilities of blending of new media, but LPS’s ambition is to show a representational array of contemporary poetry to our visitors - not just the stuff that wins prizes. This is an exciting time for poetry - with technological advances daily throwing up so many new, accessible and fascinating ways of creating poetry. Join us in our mission to show real poetry to the world - far from the wrack of commerce..

Please submit no more than:

15 minutes of audio poem in one go.

If what you want to submit is longer -

please make that clear in your intro note

and we can sort something out.

500 - 1000 Wordsworth of text-written poetry.

Electronic submissions only for text-written poems.

Movie and digital poetry should, if possible, also be sent electronically. If the file size is too great then email us and we can do it by some other means. This is easy, so don’t be put off..

Copyrighting is up to you. We recommend www.creativecommons.org. You can email us the html of the copyright license so that we can display it. That way everyone can see what kind of rights you reserve, if any..

If you have any questions about submissions that are not answered below please feel free to email us
