About Us
What is The Lost Poetry Club?​
The Lost Poetry Club is an audible zine podcast. In each episode, a theme is chosen, setting the stage for boundless exploration. We aim to deliver a blend of imagined tales that unfurl like short films, punctuated by evocative poetry and flash fiction, and complemented by music sourced outside of the mainstream, all crafted for an immersive auditory experience.
​
Having delivered our pilot episode "The Chronicle" (listen now), we are hard at work on the rest of the 1st season, to be released in 2025. Each episode is approximately one hour in length and will be available to download on all major platforms.

Illy Kotz
Hello, I'm Illy! The happy creator, host, and editor-in-chief of this little operation. I hail from Bristol, U.K., where I live with a husband-type person and our cat-cum-intern, Bean.
Over the years, I've ventured into directing, writing, editing, acting, and producing —in short, I’m a jill-of-all-trades.

Hi, I'm Sidney! As a storyteller and novelist, I am most interested in writing about friendship, intimacy and alternate dimensions. I am passionate about egg sandwiches, long walks, and watching trees like they’re TV. I was born in California but nowadays I live in Helsinki, where I labor slowly and joyously on my second novel.
