Welcome to our Humour Verse Competition! We have noticed a scarcity of humour verse competitions with decent prize money, even though there are huge numbers of people who like to write and read humour verse. So the team at Flash 500 have decided to launch this one. The entries will be judged by Lorraine Mace, winner of the Petra Kenney International Poetry Competition, humour verse category. What are we looking for? Any form of humour will be accepted, in any style, but the content must be original and it has to make us smile. Anything from a limerick to a poem of 30 lines in length is accepted. The competition will be run quarterly with closing dates matching the Flash 500 competition: 31st March, 30th June, 30th September and 31st December. The results will be announced within six weeks of each closing date and the three winning entries each quarter will be published on this website.
Entry fee: £3 for the first poem, then £2.50 for each poem thereafter
Prizes will be awarded as follows: First: £150 plus publication in Words with JAM Second: £100 Third: £50
Payment options and entry instructions can be found on the Humour Verse Competition Entry Page
