Calling All Poets and Chefs!

Cooking Up a Great Poem: "Whitman Cooks" Poetry Contest

Does the smell of cherry pie conjure up such sweet memories of holidays past that you are inspired to write a poem? If so, poets, chefs and restaurants should all consider entering the Whitman Cooks poetry contest. Walt Whitman Birthplace Association is embarking on a historic and artistic fund raising journey. They are spearheading a fundraiser to produce Whitman Cooks, a national cookbook / poetry anthology comprised of poems & recipes that resonate together.
Walt Whitman Birthplace Association is seeking poems about food with recipes to accompany them, for a cookbook anthology to be published in 2011. In addition, all poems submitted (only the poems) will be entered into a poetry contest awarding cash prizes!
First place $150.00! Second place $75.00! Third place, $50.00!
The reading fee is $10.00 for three poems with their accompanied recipes. Each additional poem and recipe is $5.00. Submissions will be accepted beginning September 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011. All proceeds will be used to continue the legacy of the Walt Whitman Birthplace. Cookbook / poetry anthology contest winners will receive cash prizes as indicated; those selected for the anthology will receive an author's copy.
