periodicities : a journal of poetry and poetics

built as a curious extension of above/ground press

There has been an enormous amount of material posted at periodicities : a journal of poetry and poetics since lock-down began, the new online journal I founded pre-lockdown (and completely unrelated to lockdown). new material posts over the first few days of every month, so either follow along via twitter (https://twitter.com/PeriodicityJ) or facebook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/251533219212824/?ref=group_header) for updates!

periodicities is open to submissions of previously unpublished poetry-related reviews, interviews and essays. Please send submissions as .doc with author biography to periodicityjournal@gmail.com

For the time being, submissions of previously unpublished poetry will be by solicitation-only, with the exception of translated works (which you should very much send along).

Be aware also: submissions are currently open for tributes to poets Peter Ganick and Joe Blades (see the folio on Ken Belford to get a sense of how those might look: https://periodicityjournal.blogspot.com/2020/04/folio-ken-belford-1946-2020_4.html)
