Poetry Ireland Introduction Series

Here's an opportunity from Poetry Ireland: The Poetry Ireland Introduction Series showcases emerging talent by offering a paid, public reading to poets working towards a first collection, and with a track record of publication in journals and magazines.

To apply for the Introductions series in Spring 2013, send no more than ten pages of poems and a short biographical note emphasising publication credits to: Introductions, Poetry Ireland, 32 Kildare St, D2

The closing date for receipt of entries is Monday 7 January 2013.

This year Doghouse Books in Co Kerry has agreed to read (without commitment from publisher or poet) the shortlisted Introductions readers, with a view to publishing one full collection within the following year.
