A new magazine that has been set up by poets in the north-east is looking for submissions for its second issue. Butcher’s Dog, published twice a year, is supported by New Writing North, and its first issue was launched last October. The deadline for submissions is 1 March. It says: “We accept submissions from writers from anywhere in the UK, though we have a special interest in work that has a relationship with the north of England. Interested poets should send us up to three unpublished poems for consideration.” More details
