Poetry and Related Sources and Links — A 2019 Update
By David E. Cowen
Author of Bleeding Saffron and Editor of HWA Poetry Showcase Vols. III and IV
While waiting for the Bram Stoker Award to move on to the next level (and hopefully the inclusion on this blog of excerpts from the final poetry nominee’s works) I thought it would be useful to refresh the obvious — “where do I send my poetry.” The HWA has its own list of markets as does the Science Fiction Poetry Association. Members such as Ashley Dioses have added a list to their blogs. A number of other sources are out there which may prove to be of interest. I haven’t tested the links on each page and certainly there is overlap but these links provide a decent set of lists to try to find a market for your poetry. https://horror.org/trying-new/ —.
