Hello All
Have just received this email in relation to a very rich poetry prize currently on offer. Online entries close 30 June.
The email contains a link to further information, including online anthologies of longlisted entries for 2015 and 2014. As expected, free verse dominates - so who's up for taking up the challenge and widening the horizons of these judges??
