The ireland chair of poetry pamphlet series

HOWL New Irish Writing are delighted to partner with The Ireland Chair of Poetry Trust on the second round of the Ireland

Chair of Poetry Pamphlet Series project. A project which showcases the ubiquitous talent of Ireland's emerging poets.

Poets who have not yet published a pamphlet or collection will be invited to submit their 17-20 page (poetry) pamphlet and a brief CV. Poems will be selected by Professor Vona Groarke and two of The Ireland Chair of Poetry Trustees for inclusion in two pamphlets of The Ireland Chair of Poetry Pamphlet Series, which will be published by HOWL New Irish

Writing in Spring 2027.

The Ireland Chair of Poetry Pamphlet Series has been established to encourage and assist poets in their creative development. The Trust hopes that this initiative will offer emerging poets who have not yet published a pamphlet or collection the opportunity to establish their careers and enhance their professional development.

HOWL New Irish Writing wholeheartedly believes that Ireland's literary landscape needs more poetry pamphlets and we are thoroughly pleased to be collaborating with The Ireland Chair of Poetry Trust on this project.

Excerpt from 'To Niall Woods and Xenya Ostrovskaia, married in Dublin on 9 September 2009' by Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin from New Selected Poems (2005) is reproduced by kind permission of the author and The Gallery Press.

Poets submitting must have at least three poems published in journals

or periodicals and will need to submit a publication list as part of the application.

All applications must be made via the online platform Submittable.

All queries can be emailed to irelandchairofpoetry@gmail.com

The closing date for receipt of submissions is Thursday 29th October at 2 pm.
