Please ensure all address details are accurate and up to date. Poetry O’Clock cannot be responsible for delays or loss resulting from incomplete or incorrect address information.

If you choose to contribute, you’re invited to submit one original poem in response to the month’s theme.

The QR code on the prompt card leads to a members-only submission page, where the current submission window and deadline will be clearly listed. There, contributors are asked to share their poem, a short note about themselves and whether they would like to be considered for Poet in the Post if their work is selected.

Each submission is read with care. Selections are made in relation to the month’s theme and the editorial tone of the edition. 

If your work is selected for a monthly edition of The Post, you will receive a complimentary edition of the next month’s issue, together with the original typewritten poem prepared for publication.

Selected work from contributors to The Post may be included in the Poetry O’Clock Annual Archive, a curated anthology shaped by the year’s themes, voices and exchanges.

The archive serves as a record of collective literary engagement and a way of honouring contributors over time. Inclusion remains editorial and limited. Contributors whose work appears will be offered early access and a contributor-only rate.
