Have you entered the biggest free-to-enter annual poetry competition there has ever been?

The National Poetry Anthology has been discovering new poetry talent for the past 14 years.

We pick 250 regional “poet laureates” – then put their winning poem in the book.

They get a free copy and then get to vote for the best poem in the book. The overall winner gets £1,000 and a magnificent trophy to keep for life.

You can see all of the previous winners and their winning poems on our website at www.unitedpress.co.uk/free-poetry-competitions/previous-npa-winners.html

If you haven’t entered before – why not?

Just send up to three poems (160 words and 25 lines maximum each, including blank lines) on any subject.

You can submit your poems online at www.unitedpress.co.uk/submit-poetry-online/ or post them to United Press Ltd, Admail 3735, London, EC1B 1JB.

If you have never entered one of our competitions before now is the perfect time to do so, because first-time entrants will receive a free copy of the National Poetry Anthology 2012, in which you can read all 250 winning entries from the last book. But hurry because we cannot keep this offer open for long.
