2007 Poetry Contest Now Open!

Perigee is excited to announce that our annual poetry contest is now open and ready to receive your submissions. As usual, we are feeling generous. We're giving away $650 in cash prizes to the top four entries--with a whopping $300 going to the first place entry! We'll be publishing the winning entries (along with the names of any honorable mentions) in our 2008 anniversary issue. Oh, and then there's that Pushcart Nomination we're giving the winning poem.

Need more reason to submit? How about our finalist judge Joseph Millar? He'll be following in the footsteps of Judy Jordan ('04), Steve Kowit ('05), and Marvin Bell ('06).

You can submit three poems for only $10, and there is no limit to how many submissions you can make (each 3 require $10). The deadline for this contest is December 31st, 2007. We will announce the results here on February 15, 2008.

When you're ready to review the guidelines, and submit your poems, click here. We wish all of this year's participants the best of luck!
