General Information

    Pulsar Poetry Magazine, (was produced twice a year, publication dates: March and September), was an A5 size, 44 page, professionally printed paper production, with a full-colour cover.  Pulsar includes poems from all areas of the globe.  The magazine also includes book/booklet reviews and reviews of 'live' poetry events.  Photographs and illustrations are also featured.  Photographs are mainly of poets performing at Pulsar 'Live-Microphone' poetry evenings which are regularly held in the Swindon, Wiltshire area of the UK.  Pulsar is now in its fifteenth year of production.  The September 2009 publication was edition # 52, the last printed edition The tenth edition of Pulsar as a Webzine is now posted and on-line, see the March 2012 Poems and Book Reviews, click on appropriate tabs, below. Pulsar is non-profit making and is run by poetry enthusiasts for poetry enthusiasts, an altruistic concern.  David Pike.

Editorial Update:  please note that Pulsar is now a web-zine only.  We will publish poems on the Pulsar web on a quarterly basis, i.e. March, June, September and December.  The selection process for poems will not alter and we will continue to publish on a merit basis only, be warned the editor is very picky! For example, if I receive three thousand poems and I only like one poem, then that single poem is the only poem we will publish, (even if it means one poem per edition).   For poem submission guidelines select the following button: Frequently Asked Question We may, in the future, publish the occasional printed version of Pulsar, (or other Ligden productions), but this will be down to editor discretion.  If you have any questions please e-mail the Pulsar editor, please see e-mail address below.  DP
