​

Please send up to 3 UNPUBLISHED poems and/or artwork/photographs to acropolisjournal@gmail.com

Note, you are welcome to submit to both categories.

​

We would love to hear from new and emerging writers and under-represented voices as well as established writers. For this special edition we are looking to include past contributors and writers and artists we've not featured before. 

​

Please attach poetry as .doc or .docx. If your poem has any specific formatting or shape please ALSO send a PDF or JPG. Please send artwork/photographs in jpg format, ideal image size is a few mb. We prefer to read poems under two pages, but we’re flexible and happy to consider hybrid pieces.

Any font is fine - if in doubt, Times New Roman 12pt single spaced (A5 may be easier to work with to maintain line breaks when publishing). If your poem has any spacing/formatting (including justified text) we will also make a PDF file available to download as our site may display them slightly differently. On our mobile site, some line breaks may be different.

Simultaneous submissions are fine - just let us know if they are accepted elsewhere. We aim to reply to all submissions within four weeks of the submission deadline, if you haven’t heard back after that, please feel free to get in touch. Issue Ten publication is planned for late 2024. 

Please be reassured we will do everything to respect writers and artists. Submissions are free and we will always treat you and your work with care and kindness. You retain the rights to any poems published. Please credit Acropolis Journal in any future publications. Issues will be published on our site and available from our archives. Unfortunately, we can't offer payment at this time. If you want to donate money to our editor please use the tip jar below or get in touch to ask about our feedback/editing services. Thank you.

If you would like to please include a bio in a cover note (approx 50-100 words). Tell us as much or as little as you want to about you and your poems, if there’s a particular one you want us to focus on, let us know. Please include content warnings, as these will be used on our site, and if you are submitting artwork/photography/hybrids, please include a written description so we can display this. If you have any questions or other requirements for accessibility, please feel free to message. If you can't attach a .doc/docx, please paste your work into the body of your e-mail. If we ask you to send more, we mean it! We look forward to reading your submissions.​
