FSP Anthology 2021 submission guidelines and editors

We are pleased to announce that the 2021 FSP Anthology 46 will be edited by Louise Nicholas and Judy Dally.

In order for your poems to be considered for publication in the anthology, you must adhere to the following guidelines:

  • You MUST be a 2021 financial member of Friendly Street Poets.
  • Your submission MUST have been read at an FSP Open Mic meeting in 2021.
  • There is a 3-minute reading time total per submission, regardless of number of poems. 
  • All poems submitted on-line must be in one document in MS Word (.doc or .docx).
  • The name of this document should be your surname, initials & the number of poems submitted: e.g., FordND3.docx (3 poems by N.D. Ford, saved as docx).
  • On-line submissions are accepted ONLY via the FSP website form below. Do not email them.
  • Poems of the Month will be published on the FSP Website. 
  • Offensive language will not be tolerated. This refers to sexist, racist, threatening or other discriminatory wording, not to the actual language. Swear words are okay if in context of the poem, but intolerance of “other” will not be accepted.
  • If you prefer, you can submit your poem as hard copy at the time of reading. You need to have two printed copies, with all your name and contact details, especially a telephone number and an email address. If your poem is selected for the Anthology, you will need to provide a file according to the guidelines above.
