Calling All Poets: Join PoetrySoup's Quest to Create the Most Visually Stunning and Uplifting Poetry Anthology Ever

Blog Posted:8/6/2024 11:38:00 AM

PoetrySoup is now accepting submissions for its next poetry anthology. Nothing will compare to this upcoming PoetrySoup poetry anthology. We aim to create the most uplifting, positive, and upbuilding poetry anthology. However, we need your poems.

The Theme: Positive, Inspiring, Encouraging, and Uplifting Thoughts

Please submit your poems on any topic and in any poetic form. However, they must contain only positive, inspiring, encouraging, and uplifting thoughts. We aim to create an anthology that fills the readers' hearts and minds with positivity. Unlike previous anthologies, this one will include many motivational illustrations, some of which will be based on the selected poems.

Submission is Free

Submission to this poetry anthology is free. You may submit one poem for possible inclusion. Lifetime Premium Members, however, can submit up to three poems for potential inclusion in the anthology.

More information can be found here...

I've just removed my entry for this anthology, I don't want one of my poems potentially being in a book with AI generated poems in it. Very sad that but I don't want to be anywhere near it. Based on what I've read lately on this site.

Oh how exciting! I need to write more uplifting poetry lol... looking through my poems, I've only found a few that would even meet the theme! I will humbly submit my 3 choices but with so many amazing poets/writers in our community I don't expect to be chosen. No... I'm not fishing lol... just being truthful. And it's still exciting because I'll "know" some of the poets who do get chosen for this... and I'll be rooting for you all! Good luck and God bless! Xoxo

Having self published I know how much time and effort it takes to prepare poems for publication and Good luck with your next anthology. Whilst I have your attention please can you arrange for the POTW from 27th July to be removed as it is not written by the poet, merely quotes by JD Vance.

Hi Admin 2 months have passed and the 3 issues I contacted about still haven't been deal with! It really doesn't inspire me to be active on soup when your rules are broken yet you choose to ignore it and not even respond to mails

That's a bit peculiar to have been chosen for a potw. I recall you mentioning it when it happened. Good luck with that...

This anthology seems interesting! I am excited to see what's ahead! Goodluck to all poets. Thank you Team PS for showcasing such creative works from us. It is always an honour for our humble creations to be selected.
