Pennine Platform Magazine invites submissions for issue 98 from poets of all ages and backgrounds; women and nonbinary writers especially welcome. Please send 3-6 unpublished poems during September.
You'll find the guidelines at

One of the UK's longest-running independent magazines, Pennine Platform is A5 format, perfect bound, and publishes 60 pages of new poetry twice yearly, with readers from the Pennine region of northern England and worldwide.
Subscribers and contributors may know the area well or have yet to visit. A Pennine flavour to submissions is by no means essential: more important are resonance, relevance, precision, clarity and originality.
The magazine aims for a broad cultural mix and is committed to print format alongside new digital and spoken word opportunities.
Deadline: 30 September 2025
