Guest host Kim Mannix, author of the new poetry collection Confirm Humanity, is excited to tell you all that the On Creative Writing Poetry Contest is officially OPEN!

The Poetry Contest is giving $300 Canadian for the first prize, and $100 Canadian for the runner-up!

Here’s what you need to know:

● Who can enter? Anyone, anywhere in the world.

● What are we looking for? Original poems in English. Any subject, any style.

● The fine print: Your poem must be unpublished and no longer than 50 lines.

● Entry fee: Just $5 Canadian per poem, and you can enter as many times as you like.

Now, a few words about the judges and the sponsors. Your poem will be judged by a stellar panel: poet and professor Rob Winger, Kim Mannix, a poet and author of a new collection called Confirm Humanity, and On Creative Writing’s Sheelagh Caygill.

Not least, a big thank you to poetry contest sponsors, Wolsak and Wynn publishers and River Street Writing author and book publicity firm, for making this poetry contest possible.

The entry deadline will be here soon! Mark your calendar, set a reminder, tattoo it on your arm—just don't miss it!

The deadline is Friday, December 19, 2025, at 11 a.m. Mountain Time.

Stop waiting for inspiration and start submitting! We can't wait to read your entry.

If you’re a lover of poetry, we have another contest you’ll want to know about. This contest is for a hard copy of award-winning poet Kim Fahner’s new collection, The Pollination Field. This beautiful book has been provided by the publisher, Turnstone Press. The contest for Kim’s book closes on Friday, December 12, 2025 at 11 a.m Mountain time.

Enter both contests at Oncreativewriting.com.

Thanks, and good luck everyone!
