I am very happy to announce the ninth annual Orchard Street Press Poetry Contest, the return of an event that, in its first eight seasons, has produced some wonderful poetry and eight editions of Quiet Diamonds (QD), our annual journal that grows in reputation with each passing year. I am especially pleased to announce that the Contest entry fee remains at $15.
We are delighted to announce the arrival of one of our favorite events here at Orchard Street: the annual Poetry Contest!!
This coming March-April, The Orchard Street Press will conduct its sixth annual Poetry Contest: $500 first place (and the Malovrh-Fenlon Poetry Prize), $300 second, $200 third. Prize-winning and other submitted poems will appear in Quiet Diamonds, our annual poetry journal, and select entrants will be invited to submit chapbooks for possible publication. In 2022 we published 10 chapbooks from entrants to the Contest. We expect to publish a similar number from the ‘23 Contest.
