July 8 - August 31

Picture
It's time for MAC's Annual Summer Poetry Slam. We started late this year due to the road closures in Mooseville, but we'll publish two poems a week to make up for the lost time.

We also added a new award. At the end, we'll crown a champion. This year's champion will win a prize of their choice from a list that includes coffee mugs, pens, CDs, t-shirts, and the like.

So, without further delay, it's time to get your poetry on.

Contest Details

Dates: July 8 - August 31, 2015

Criteria: Any length, theme or style is acceptable

There is no limit to how many poems or how many times you submit.

Winners will be announced
at Beatnik Books Wednesdays & Sundays.
THE SLAM IS DONE. BE BACK NEXT YEAR
