Tom Howard/Margaret Reid
Poetry Contest
|
|
To
enhance the presentation of our Tom
Howard/Margaret Reid Poetry Contest winners, we commission
original artwork to go with their poems. This is an extra benefit
of winning and incurs no expense on the poet's part. Please enjoy
selected illustrations below.
This year's contest will award the Tom Howard Prize of $3,500 for a
poem in any style or genre, and the Margaret Reid Prize of $3,500
for a poem that rhymes or has a traditional style. Ten Honorable
Mentions will receive $300 each (any style). The top 12 entries
will be published online. The top two winners will also receive
two-year gift certificates from our co-sponsor, Duotrope.
Submit three poems for one
$22 entry fee. Both published and unpublished poems are welcome.
Enter online via Submittable.
Most countries eligible. Length limit per poem: 250 lines.
Deadline: October 1.
