The erbacce-poetry journal has been published quarterly as a chap-book since 2004 but as from 2021 it will expand to a bi-annual 96 page perfect bound top-quality book-style-journal published in Autumn and Spring. It will be divided into two halves and will highlight the work of two 'featured-poets' plus a wide selection of poetry from other highly talented poets world-wide. A FULL list of every erbacce-journal ever published is at the foot of this page,


The new style erbacce-journal is an exciting new concept and current subscribers to the quarterly chap-book journal will receive the new perfect bound books at no extra charge. The cover-price of each 96 page erbacce poetry journal will be £10.00 however if you subscribe you will get BOTH journals (one in Autumn the other in Spring) for just £15.00 plus a token contribution towards p/p...


With regard to post and packing; erbacce will subsidise the cost of p/p but please note that since the UK left the EU the EU is now designated as being just another rest-of-the-world area and to ship a 96 page erbacce journal outside the UK costs us between £5.00 and £6.40 which other poets currently subsidise. 

IF you haven't subscribed yet please do so now! Join the erbacce-cooperative and help us in our fight to get a fair deal for poets by combatting the hundreds of online sites who ask you to pay a 'reading fee' or a 'submission fee' just to enter their money-making so-called 'competitions'. The annual erbacce-prize for poetry has been free-to-enter for fifteen years and that is how it will remain!
