The TAPESTRY OF BRONZE ODES
TO OLYMPIANS is holding their spring contest: http://www.tapestryofbronze.com/OdeForm.html
They are sponsoring a series of
traditional poetry contests to celebrate Greek and Roman mythology and the
Olympian gods. The subject of the current contest is Hephaestus (also known as
Vulcan), the God of the Forge.
The deadline is April 30, 2013. Limit 30 lines.
MAKE SURE your poem is about Hephaestus / Vulcan. The first prize winner in
each age group will receive $50 (US). Categories are over 18 and under 18. No
entry fee.

ReplyDeleteThanks for posting contests. I rarely submit, but sometimes I think I ought to, depending on the theme. This one is interesting, but alas, it's not my cup of tea. :-) I'll look forward to seeing more contest posts on your blog. Thank you so much!

ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog. I'm not much of a writer, but I'm always up for learning new things. I'm a new follower and hopefully I'll learn a bit more about writing. If nothing more than to make my blog more interesting.
ReplyDeleteI might try this one. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHephestus also walked with a limp. But that is the extent of my limited knowledge.
ReplyDeleteThe only word that caught my attention there, was Vulcan. I'm a closet Trekie.
