Poetry collection submissions are invited for the 2016 Melita Hume Poetry Prize from Eyewear Publishing.
The aim of the prize, which is open to poets under 35 who have not previously published a full-length collection, is to support younger emerging poets in difficult economic times. The winner’s collection will be published by Eyewear Publishing and the poet will receive £1,500.
Submit original manuscripts between 48 and 100 pages by a single author. There are no restrictions on style or content. Individual poems in the collection may have been previously published, but the collection as a whole must not have been previously published, or self-published.
