As regards the entry fee, I am saying nothing either.
Good luck if you enter, Niamh.
Think its the same price as The Patrick Kavanagh, and one or two others that escape me, I think its expensive, but I've never run a poetry competition...the fees seem to be going up as the economy goes down...:)
Its expensive Karen! Twice the price of most books!
Brigid
Its a great prize all right but I'm nowhere near a collection ...yet :)...
though if I really MADE the time i.e. sacrificed more housework and sleep time...I'd loved to. If, no when, I get this novel done, I'll write nothing but poetry for a year:)
and as for the fee - well I suppose we've got time between now and May to start saving up for it.....
