the poetLinks to British Innovative Poetry Sites:
Poets
blogs, websites, social media etc of poets


This section is organised by the name of the poet, not the website, usually starting if there are several sites with what appears as a major homepage or blog, then more specific or less current sites. I have tried to ensure each poet's name is given as s/he appears to wish it to be presented — please notify me of any errors. I don't generally use academic titles — irrelevant to poetry. Inevitable repetitions of multi-authored sites, and of listings for individuals using more than one name or persona. Note also coverage of Twitter is very patchy — should I include it at all? be more definitive & thorough? Ditto Facebook, though I've begun to check if an individual's feed is aimed specifically at other poets. I have not included blogs that are not open access. indicates a poet who has died. The list ends with sublists of poets represented with pages or profiles in a number of major listings.

As with all the material on this site, please contact me at peter@greatworks.org.uk for any suggestions for additions, or to correct any errors, and, please, any comment or recommendation on my citing of poets' social media. And please note that as on all these lists, a date in italics indicates the last date of fresh material being uploaded to any site; but nonetheless even if it's not live any more, there's interest there. is used to indicate an addition (or major alteration) to the listing.
