Copyright remains with the author. Unfortunately, we can't pay but a complimentary copy is sent to successful poets. If everyone who submits a poem buys a copy, the magazine will stay financially sustainable.
Individual copies are £7 incl. UK p&p (please add £6 for Europe / £8 for the rest of the world).
Buy any 2 copies for £12 / 3 for £15, UK p&p included.
Please state which colour issue(s) you would like - pink, blue, orange, purple (red & yellow SOLD OUT)
If outside the UK and would like to buy more than one copy, please email me your location and I will quote you a postage price.
Methods of payment:
—via PayPal using: vanguardeditions@gmail.com
—via a bank transfer to VANGUARD READINGS, Account Number: 21788057, Sort Code: 50-10-29.
Please let me know your postal address via the Contact page.
PLEASE NOTE: Royal Mail are now charging at least £8.20 to ship a copy of 14 magazine to countries outside Europe. The magazine itself costs £7, so for the first time in my lifetime, it now costs more to send a magazine to those countries than to buy it. As a one-man operation, I simply can’t afford to ship complimentary copies to people outside Europe whose work I’d like to accept for the magazine. From now on, anyone outside Europe whose work I’d love to accept has two options:
1) I would ask that they cover the postage cost (but not the cover price). Once I’ve received confirmation of payment, I can send the magazine to them.
2) If they object to that and would rather not do so, I can send a PDF of the magazine instead.
If submitting from outside Europe, please indicate which option you prefer.
I am really sorry to have to do this, but if I covered these exorbitant postage prices myself, I would not be able to run 14 magazine anymore.
Thanks for your understanding.
