Submissions are now closed. Many thanks to all who've submitted poems - there's been a fantastic response.
Our guidelines stated that poets would be notified by post of the outcome of their submission by the end of April, if they enclosed a stamped self addressed envelope. As so many poems have been received, it's taking longer than anticipated to reply to everyone. Apologies if you haven't yet heard from me - I should be able to contact all poets by the end of May 2010. (As stated in the guidelines, it's not possible to offer feedback or the return of manuscripts.) Poets who've been unable to enclose SAE/return postage, or have overlooked it, will be sent a reply, providing they've included contact details with their submission.
Eileen Jones, Editor of The IRON Book of New Humorous Verse
