Templar Poetry is based in the heart of Derbyshire and is an independent
publisher of excellent contemporary poetry in pamphlets, collections and Iota
magazine. Simultaneously we invite wider audiences and readers to poetry in
the community through the annual Derwent Poetry Festival. The festival hosts
the awards event for the annual Templar Poetry Pamphlet and Collection
Competition and also features a series of readings for poets published by
Templar Poetry alongside guest poets from other publishers. Details of the
2008 Derwent Poetry Festival remain available on the Festival page, where
you can view the programme. Details of the 2009 Festival will be posted in July
as many of the poets appearing emerge from the annual Pamphlet & Collection
Competition. All of our published poetry is available from the City of Derby and
Derbyshire Public Libraries as well as other libraries throughout the UK.
The annual Templar Poetry Pamphlet and Collection Competition offers poets an
opportunity to submit their work as short collections. Four pamphlets are
chosen by the judge for publication in pamphlet form and the winning poets all
have the opportunity to submit a full collection for later publication. An
anthology of the best individual poems from all the remaining submissions is
published alongside the pamphlets and other new titles. Further information
about the 2009 competition are available on the Competitions page.
All Templar Poetry publications are available from good bookshops and directly
from our website where the Shopping Cart enables both single and multiple
purchases of all our books. The 2006 Templar Poetry Pamphlets were described
by one reviewer as ‘…the best looking pamphlets I’ve ever seen…’ and are
produced as high quality small paperbacks. Our poetry collections are published
in high quality hardback editions. Our current poetry list can be viewed and
purchased online from the Poetry page. Online purchases are usually
despatched within five working days of receipt of the order.
Up to date news about our poets appears on our News page alongside any other
new initiatives. We also have a Facebook Group which is open for membership.
We also publish Iota Magazine which is being relaunched in Spring 2009.
Details are posted on the Iota Magazine website at www.iotamagazine.co.uk
Templar Poetry strives to bring a fresh and unfettered approach to publishing
contemporary poetry and is committed to ensuring that poetry engages with
new readers. Our founding principals are to publish excellent contemporary
poetry and to facilitate and encourage audiences and readers to access and
enjoy the poetry we publish.
Templar Poetry acknowledges financial support from Arts Council England for its publishing programme.
