We are delighted to announce that Poetry Birmingham is shortlisted for Best Magazine in the 2020 Saboteur Awards!
On this very day last year we sat and lamented the fact that Birmingham did not have a poetry magazine—the nation's 2nd city; how? Why?! And we decided then and there to change that and so Poetry Birmingham was born. One year on, and we find ourselves with these three beauties under our belts, a 4th issue on the way, and our very own Pallina Press publishing the journals. To be shortlisted for a Saboteur Award? That too for Best Magazine? Positively decadent.
Naush and I would love to thank all our readers, our contributors, all our loved ones for their support. Voting will open again on Sunday, April 19 so keep a look out for links - a win is almost in reach!
