~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- I'd highly recommend reading the dispatch first but here's the key information:
The competition starts today (5th May) and the deadline for submissions is the 21st May. The results will be released on the 26th May.
Although only our embassy regions are formally invited, Anyone can take part, no matter what region. Apart from The 5th Empire and similar regions...
There are Four categories: Haiku, Freeverse, The Environment and Vision.
All submissions must be sent toForest Poetry Judge.
Each participant can submit Five poems each across the four categories but only Two may be Haikus. You do not have to submit all your poems at once, there is no rush.
There are Three main judging criteria: Effectiveness, Thought and Resonance.
There are Seven judges from both Forest and our embassy regions. Not all of these have been confirmed yet but the dispatch will be updated as and when they are confirmed.
Participants Must write the poems themselves. Using AI to write poems is forbidden (it won't help anyway) and plagiarism is forbidden.
Most importantly HAVE FUN!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a great opportunity for everyone to channel their creativity and to let their imagination run wild! You have plenty of time so don't rush it!
Have a great day...
