Introducing our 2022–3 Publishing Programme / by Out Spoken

As we move into Autumn, we’re excited to look ahead to our 2022–3 publishing schedule. Wayne Holloway-Smith will commence his tenure as Editor, succeeding the brilliant Joelle Taylor, and we’re delighted to announce the six poets he has selected to publish.

Wayne says:

“It’s been hugely encouraging to see the amount of talent that exists among the emerging poetry community. It’s also been a privilege to be able to choose these new voices to work with. I stand behind and 100 percent believe in the poems these writers are producing — each one with something unique to offer — and I cannot wait to help usher the books into the world. ”

Focusing on debuts, Wayne’s list features pamphlets from Helen Quah, Mukahang Limbu, Maria-Sophia Christodoulou and Oakley Flanagan, and debut full collections from Katie O’Pray and Emma Jeremy — you can learn a little more about the poets in the introductory booklet above.

We’re both honoured and excited to be publishing them, and can’t wait to bring their work to readers.
