Bee City Poets at its First Thursday" gathering in Hayesville yesterday received a "Book Of The Year" gifted from the Utah State Poetry Society of which NCWN-West member Raven Chiong is a member.
The Utah State Poetry Society also generously extended an invitation for NCWN-West members to enter in its upcoming 2024 annual poetry contest. There are 38 categories (18 categories for non-members of UTSPS) and cash prizes! "Personally, I have submitted poems to the contest the last 5 years, won a few dollars, and have sponsored Category #12," Raven said. "The process is a fun learning experience and can be extra motivation to pollinate the world with our words."
The submission window is December 1, 2023-February 1, 2024.
Here is a convenient link for direct access to all the details: (As you may already know, it's important to follow the guidelines to avoid disqualification of your entries)
