Award-winning poet Theresa Lola is the judge for the Judge’s Prize for poems of 11 to 50 lines.

The six prize-winning poems will be published in Magma and there will also be five special mentions for the Judge’s Prize and for the Editors’ Prize. Winning and commended poets will be invited to read their poems at a Magma Competition Event in Spring 2021.
