The 2019 Grindstone International Poetry Prize is open for submissions. Grindstone Literary is one of the largest competition providers in the UK and set themselves apart by offering critical feedback on every single submission, included in the standard entry fee. 

The winners are selected by renowned poets and editors, and those who place on our shortlists are published in the poetry collection featured in a year-end anthology. In addition to that, those who place on our shortlist will also receive an exclusive invitation to participate in the upcoming Atmos Collections, a new and experimental collaborative poetry anthology. 

The grand prize this year is £500, with £50 going to the runner up. Those on the shortlist will also receive additional feedback on their entries.
