Drunk Muse Press currently publishes books in two formats only - between 50-60 pages, and 70-80 pages. We like to work closely with the poets we publish, and pride ourselves on being a publishing outlet run by poets for the benefit of poets. At present, we publish seven to eight books a year, which are showcased here, on our social media forums, at readings, launches, festivals and - most importantly - by the poets themselves. We are not prescriptive as to the content or form, but do favour poetry that fuses craft and an immediacy of style. To date, we have published poets from across these islands as well as Palestinian poets, in keeping with our internationalist outlook.
Dear poets, we appreciate your interest in Drunk Muse Press. Please note: we’re currently closed for submissions and our publication list for 2025/2026 is full. We’ll be inviting submissions in late 2026 for publication in 2027. The best way to keep
up to date with our news and events is by following Drunk Muse Press on social media and by signing up to the regular emailed newsletter on our homepage. Updates are also posted on this website.
