New Irish Writing: The Irish Independent!

 New Irish Writing: The Irish Independent!

With competitions few and far between these days here's one that is free to enter but only for writers who have yet to publish their first book. Edited by Ciaran Carty, full details can be had by accessing the Poetry Ireland Competition page (Link to the right) or by going to the Irish Independent website. Stories submitted should not exceed 2000 words and up to four poems may be submitted. There is no entry form required and writers whose work is selected will receive €120 for fiction and €60 for poetry. You can email your entry preferably as a 'Word Document' to newirishwriting@independent.ie

Please make sure you include your name, address and contact number as well as a brief biographical paragraph. New Irish Writing appears on the last Saturday of each month in the Irish Independent and is an opportunity open to writers who are Irish or resident in Ireland.
