Placeholder Press

we're still in hiatus, but we built a new website to be a better home for what we published while we were active. if you published with us, it's here for free. still planning to add more and make improvements, but today felt like the day to announce it. placeholderpress.co.uk

MONUMENTS 22/10/22 10AM - 6PM Norwich Historic Churches Trust Next week is our Monuments exhibition!!! We're super excited. There's going to be art, poetry, performances + a small art sale of exhibitors.

Alex is throwing a last minute house show to send off the former placeholder hq. This is going to be scrappy and diy, then jakob is doing a well planned and professional art show on the 22nd, plus we've redone the website. hot poet autumn, we're coming back. Dm for the address 💖

thanks to @salopress for putting on a fantastic indie book fair! we're having a wonderful time, and if you're in #norwich, it would be great to see you too!

okay, we should have the second run of Entertainer of the Year Runner-Up sorted next week, ready for a table at the Norwich Indie Book Fair the week after, a Placeholder Poetry Social the week after that, before seeing out May with a new community project. exciting!

coming up to the halfway point of #NaPoWriMo - how are we all feeling? if you're looking for today's inspiration, or need some brilliant poetry to beat the burnout, we just put 'Body as a second language' by Juliana Chang up on the site placeholderpress.co.uk/issue-2/julian…

spent a lot of the weekend staring at a screen, so decided to get out of the house and put some poems up around the city. these are just pages torn out of Placeholder Issue 2, but should we print some proper posters for next time?

if you missed it: we're coming back from hiatus! in april we're improving what we've already done - reprints, upgrades, and making more of what we've published available on the website. today, we're sharing 'SHOPLIFTING GLITTER ON FRIDAY 13TH' by Thai Io: placeholderpress.co.uk/issue-2/thai-i…

a message i want to give placeholder: "I think about you all the time, and I love you, and I'm sorry I dropped off the radar. I can't promise I won't ever do it again, but I can promise I want to put the energy in and I want to be there." i love this press! new poem tomorrow ❤️

we're coming back ❤️ full post about the hiatus to come on the site for anyone interested, but so we're excited to return! we'll be spending april improving what we've done already, may is for community events, then new work in the summer we missed you. happy to have home ❤️

our reboot is taking a while because jakob and i had to fire each other for making fun of poetry. going to spend the week putting everything from issue 1 and 2 online while we figure out whether bullying prose poets gets a pass because they're a bit more like sally rooney

New to the lit scene, @readplaceholder is trying to do it all: print, poetry, art essays, the lot. Over ambitious, or a stroke of genius? Head over to rrramble.co.uk to find out what our writers thought > > bit.ly/2UfP872✨

i'm really excited about the placeholder phase 2.0 we're putting together here. we're having meetings and shit. jakob made me make a trello account.

sorry we haven't tweeted in three months, i've been trying to figure out how to make a pride month version of this logo that doesn't look like a hate crime

We are delighted to have Emma Levin back for Misplacement Magazine. Back in Issue 1 of @readplaceholder we featured her instructions on how to install your freeview box and survive an encounter with yourself. You can read it on our website now. misplacement.co.uk/how-to-install…
