The annual Rattle Poetry Prize offers 10,000 USD for a single poem to be published in the winter issue of the magazine. Ten finalists will also receive 200 USD each and publication, and be eligible for the 2,000 USD Readers’ Choice Award, to be selected by subscriber and entrant vote.
Additional poems from the entries are frequently offered publication as well. In 2017 they published 20 poems that had been submitted to the contest from just over 4,000 entries.
Past winners have included a retired teacher, a lawyer, and several students. It’s fair, it’s friendly, and you win a print subscription to Rattle even if you don’t win.
Open to writers, worldwide; poems must be written in English (no translations). Rattle’s winter issue must be a potential first publication for all works submitted. No previously published works, or works accepted for publication elsewhere. Simultaneous submissions are allowed, but they must be notified immediately if any poems are accepted elsewhere.
