Soon the entry fees will be higher than the prize.I always think of it as The Patrick Kavanagh Ha HaHa Ha Ha Ha ...all the way to the bank.
Come on everybody, seriously now, do we really need poetry prizes? Little tin medals to wear on our puffed-out little poetry chests?
Time for change.
Go for it EW! I've entered again this year, got joint third last year out of the blue.
Hi Michael
Did you get some money last year when you came third?
I dunno should I enter against you though, you're a contender!
No money last year for third. Great place to attend though, meal on arrival with others, accommodation overnight, very friendly. Don't go on with that contender stuff. Your best stuff has that something - different(I hate using the word quirky but there it is)which might catch Brian Lynch's eye. It is always a bit of a lottery. It's a great one to win or get a mention in.
I'll take quirky..thanks
