call for POETRY

RE: call for POETRY

I checked out this site, as I enter several poetry competitions per year,

and the $25.00 entry fee for this on-line poetry competition is ridiculously high.

There are hundreds upon hundreds of literary magazine competitons
from universities and major cities that cost anywhere from $10.00 to $18.00
for up to 5 poems.

I advise staying away from poetry contests, especially on-line competitons,
that costs $20.00 or more for entry.

Peace and Light,
dah

RE: Call For Entries

This is interesting: The OP member "klyne" who posted this "call for entries" for this on-line poetry contest has deleted their call after I investigated the site only to find an enormously high entry fee.

Beware Of Poetry Competition Scams, Frauds, and Con-Artists, that could cost you hundreds of dollars per year with no chance of winning.

Stay Away From ON-Line Poetry Competitions That Are Not Free.
There are so many that are free with prize money and publication,

like "Original Poetry.com" offers.
