Kentucky State Poetry Society’s Annual Contest
The Kentucky State Poetry Society is now accepting entries for their 2008 contest.
Poets can compete in 25 categories this year, several of which pay as much as $100 for first place. I’m pleased to see the return of the Poet Laureate’s Prize, sponsored and judged this year by Jane Gentry. The Grand Prix pays $200, $100, and $50.
Submission deadline is June 30, 2008.
Entry fees for non-members are $2 per category (1 poem per category) and $5 for the Grand Prix.
You can get a full set of guidelines by downloading a pdf file here or by contacting the contest chairwoman, Irma Cooper, by e-mail at wordweaver313@adelphia.net.
Awards will be announced at the annual awards banquet, Pine Mountain State Resort Park, October 18. First prize winners will be published in the annual contest issue of Pegasus.
