For all you aspiring writers out there, here's a little information on a great magazine called Kudos:
- Hide quoted text -


Kudos - only £2.50 per issue, mostly offset by savings on postage
(around 70p each time), since several entry forms are usually enclosed.
And that of course also helps save time and effort.

September/October issue runs in fact mainly from the end of September
right up to mid November, and beyond and in some cases.


KUDOS #72 (formerly Competitions Bulletin):  UK, USA and much, much more…

Ring any bells, poetically speaking? Carillon Magazine…
The McLellan Award; Poetry Society; Second Light Network; Troubador Prize

Put some colour into your writing with the Red Planet Prize (TV scripts) or more poetry: Black Horse Poets; Dorothy Sargent Rosenberg Prizes; Cannon Poets' Silver Jubilee

Funny stuff from the Bard of Armagh and Vincent McTigue poetry contests -
and Palmprint: erotic short stories… Strong Medicine?  That's for MARGIE,
but maybe not too saucy for Worcester Writers' Circle (Stories)
or the Elizabeth Curry Prize in Poetry

And finally, some deserve a closer look -
a Bird's Eye View of playwriting, plus poetry for Invisible Ink and Old Possum (children),
and all sorts (film, poetry, plays) welcome for Dysming Monadys


Every issue, around 200 competitions – some with free entry;
at least 50 for poetry, around 40 for short stories.

Plus collections, anthologies, playwriting, non fiction, books etc, home and abroad

Details of around £250,000 in prize money.

Only £2.50 per issue. £15 pa for six; £20 Overseas


Everybody always remembers that amazing moment they actually won a prize,
but writers can always come out on top -
because entering competitions encourages motivation, organisation, and inspiration.
