The judge is Patrick Cotter, who will read each and every entry himself.
I was lucky enough to see Patrick reading at the lunchtime readings at the Irish Writers Centre. Really these should be called Out To Lunch again so that everyone knows what's going on. There was a very small audience for what turned out to be a really good reading. I'm off to find more poetry by Patrick now. Recommended.
There will be an entry fee of €5 per poem or €20 per batch of five. (Postal entries can be paid for in US Dollars or Pounds Sterling. No cash, please.)
You can submit through paypal and email.
