THE CURIO COAST SPRING POETRY PRIZE

Why not tickle the muse to keep the fires of poetry licking our brains this winter? Let's shake things up around zaadz with a poetry contest! This one closes on the spring equinox, but your subject doesn't have to relate to the seasons. Surprise me!

Prize & Fees:

Prize: $100. Winner & 2 honorable mentions will be published on wiselittleraccoon.zaadz.com

$10 fee per 3 poems, no poem more than 2 pages each. One writer may send more than 3 poems, $10 per each group of 3.

Each poem should be printed in a 12 point, easily readable font. The writer’s name, address, phone number and email address should be in the upper right hand corner of each page--front or back is acceptable. Folding to fit a letter sized envelope is fine. Simultaneous submission and previously published work is welcome--We want your best! Please keep copies of your work. We do not return submissions.

Judging:

We will be looking for fresh, specific imagery, economy, rhythm, interesting subject matter and overall poetic craft.  Tone can be edgy or inspirational. Any topic is welcome. Submissions will be reviewed by Wren Tuatha and Curio Coast Productions volunteers.
