London Poetry Pearl

London Poetry Pearl Life's London Poetry Elleesium Anthology is published in Celebration of the 5th Anniversary of London Poetry Festival 2009 and to raise funding for the Festival. Imsonium Books (or the Anthology Editor) will not take any money off the sales of this Anthology. 50% of all the profits made will go to the poets ( which will be paid out twice a year) and 50% will go to the Festival. No one will get a FREE copy of the Anthology (not even the Editor or members of the Festival Team). However, no contributor is obliged to buy a copy of the Anthology. For poets wanting to know which of their poems have been included in the Anthology, please, check it on this page where all information is published. How will the poets receive their royalties? The number of poets will be worked out from the number of poems published. Each poem will receive one unit, X, of the royalties. Therefore, the poet who has one poem published, will receive X of the royalties while the poet who has got five poems published in the Anthology will receive 5X of the royalties, with two 2X, with three 3X etc. For the translated works: the poet and their translators should work it out between themselves  as to how that royalty is split between them. But please bear in mind, we are not talking about a huge lot of money here, any way.
