Each week's winner will receive:

1. A $25 prize
2. Publication in an annual printed anthology
3. A free paperback copy of the anthology containing your poem after it is published

Any type of poem is welcome! Formal or informal, long or short, rhyme or free versewe like all kinds of poems. Results will be announced within three days of the contest end.

Each week's winner will be the one that receives the most votes by registered users. If there is a tie, it will be chosen based on the editorial judgment of the staff at Plum White Press. If a poet has won in a given week, he or she cannot win again until at least four weeks have passed, even if the entry receives the most votes (e.g., if you won the 1st contest, you will not be eligible to win again until the 5th contest). This is to allow a sufficient variety of winners.

Aside from the contest winners, we may include other poems submitted in the anthology. Those selected will receive a free paperback copy of the anthology when it is published.
