2012 Colorado Prize for Poetry : $2,000 Honorarium & Book Publication
Manuscripts accepted now through the postmark deadline of January 14, 2012.
The final judge is Elizabeth Willis. Friends & students (current & former) of the judge are not eligible to compete, nor are Colorado State University employees, students, or alumni.
The winning book-length collection of poems will be published by the Center for Literary Publishing in the fall of 2012.
The $25 entry fee includes a one-year subscription to Colorado Review (to US addresses only).
Manuscripts may consist of poems that have been previously published, but the collection as a whole must be unpublished.
Manuscripts must be at least 48 pages but no longer than 100 pages.
The winner will be announced by May 2012.
The Colorado Prize for Poetry adheres to the Contest Code of Ethics, as adopted by the Council of Literary Magazines and Presses.
