Mimesis

Starved of the dark art of poetry between issues of the roundtable review? Need another fix? Your bus just came in.

Mimesis is a new international poetry journal, helmed by James Midgley, a roundtable review contributor and gallery director of poetry at deviantart, the web's biggest artistic community. They're aiming to publishing the most exciting poems currently being written, by big and small names alike.

The website can be found here. Sample the free poetry on offer and then please do pre-order a copy of issue 1, which features poetry from Ian McLachlan, Rebecca Kutzer-rice, Emily Stuart and others, and also includes artwork and an interview with Michael Laskey.

Mimesis is also taking on board submissions for upcoming issues. So if you've got some gems left over after you've sent your best clutch to roundtable review, why not take a look at the submissions page on the site? Accepted contributors receive a free copy of the mag.
