About

At Arcana Poetry Press, we are dedicated to bringing raw, emotionally powerful poetry to the forefront. Our mission is to create a space where poets can share their voices, explore the complexities of the human experience, and connect with a diverse, inclusive community. We believe poetry is a deeply personal form of expression, one that speaks to the heart and mind in unique ways. Our goal is to highlight work that not only stirs the soul but challenges conventional thinking, opens new emotional landscapes, and invites readers to experience the world from perspectives they might not have considered before. By publishing poems that explore joy, sorrow, love, pain, and everything in between, we aim to foster connections between poets and readers, making room for meaningful conversations and deeper understanding.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
  • Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
  • Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • For book publishers, it is standard to submit a cover letter, synopsis, and sample instead of the full manuscript. Do this unless otherwise instructed.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
