How this poetry journal printable keeps your work organized

Each poem carries a number that matches the index, so finding it again is easy, even years from now. Broad margins leave space for notes and crossed out words, and the draft page shows two versions next to each other.

Seed pages catch first lines and stray phrases before they slip away. When you feel ready to share, the submission tracker, the list of places to submit and the chapbook planner are waiting.

Who this poetry notebook is for

• Poets who want every poem numbered and simple to find
• Songwriters, students and anyone who writes poems
• Writers preparing to submit to journals or shape a chapbook

Design and printing

• Elegant, minimal white pages with soft blush pink accents that use little ink

• No dates, so you can start any day and number poems as they come
