The Fish Poetry Prize 2010

The Fish Poetry Prize 2010

Fish Publishing runs the poetry competition each year, and publishes the winners in the annual Fish Anthology which will be launched during the West Cork Literary Festival, July 2010.
Fish has been running the poetry contest since 2006. Previous judges include Leanne O'Sullivan, Michael McCarthy and Peter Fallon.

Fish's guest poet this year is Matthew Sweeney, who has kindly offered his time and experience to judge the Fish Poetry Prize. Matthew will be reading all the entries so, as long as your poem is written in English and is less than 200 words, you have a chance to catch his eye and have your poem selected to be published along with nine other winners.
