About

We believe poetry encapsulates the spirit of the age in which it is written. Unlike so much of what is published today—often little more than disposable entertainment—the best poems can and should endure. A poem is like a piece of amber embedding perceptions, emotions, and thoughts as if still alive. The best pieces are holographic, reflecting light and affording insight, now and in the future. FutureCycle Press’s mission, then, is to help preserve for posterity these little time capsules, these poems, so they may be discovered and explored and appreciated. Only time will tell which ones are the real gems.

Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for all submissions, and they do not offer monetary payment for accepted submissions. (Note: About 14% of publishers always charge fees.)
The fee is USD $25 (above average for publishers that charge).

Poetry On Hiatus

Selected Poems collections only. Prose poetry relying on skilled use of poetic devices is acceptable. Flash fiction and fictional narratives should not be included, nor should any concrete poetry, shaped poetry, or poems relying on bulleted or columnar text as these are difficult, if not impossible, to reproduce for the Kindle edition. Remove any "words scattered all over the page" poems, because these are very difficult to read, especially in digital formats (like on cellphones) where type size and intended line breaks cannot be controlled. An assessment of potentially problematic formatting is made before a manuscript is cleared for content evaluation, and your submission (no matter how great) may be rejected if there are too many insurmountable issues.

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.
