Poetry Competition

 Normally, they'd put out flyers, but that's not really an option at the moment.

Hay Writers Circle are holding a poetry competition, and they've got Mel Prince from the Poetry Bookshop as their judge.  This isn't the first time she's been a judge - in 2015 she was one of the judges for the Costa Book Award.

The closing date is 16th March.  It's an open theme, so any subject, to a maximum of 40 lines.  The details are on the Hay Writers' Circle website - the link is in the side bar.  The entry fee is £5 for one poem, but up to four poems can be submitted for a fee of £10. 

The first prize is £100, second prize £25 and third prize £15, with winning poems published on the Writers Circle website with the author's permission.
