ROLL UP! TAKAH? POETRY COMPETITION 2018

Entries are now open for the takah? Poetry Competition 2018. This year’s judge is outgoing poetry editor and current Randell Cottage Writer in Residence, poet, novelist, and short story writer, James Norcliffe. As begins his glittering poem, trapeze: 

the thrill is in the possibility...

All poems entered are considered for publication, and for the winner we have a $250 prize and publication in takah? 94, our December print issue.

But the chance will be gone in a sequined flash (entries close Friday 31st August 2018).
