Poetic Republic 2012 Poetry Competition


Poetic Republic's annual poetry award introduces a uniquely democratic approach to competition judging.  Entries are judged via a rather fascinating and rigorous round-robin process conducted by the participants themselves, who can provide short 'twitter' style comments which are available to entrants after the judging process is complete. Seems a terrific way to get some feedback on your work!

Poems can be in any style, and about any subject, to a maximum of 42 lines. Entries must not have been previously published. In addition to the cash prize, the top 48 poems along with a selection of comments, will be published in an e-book.

Entry fee: GBP7 per poem

Prize:  Single poem prize GBP2000; Portfolio prize (2 poems) GBP1000

Open to: Poets worldwide (over 16 years old), writing in English
Deadline 30 April 2012

Website:   Poetic Republic
