Charles Dickson Chapbook Award
Every two years, the Charles Dickson Chapbook Contest honors poetic achievement in a chapbook-length work. Dickson, an internationally respected poet of the haiku, was the author of A Touch of Wholeness, Taste of Summer, Fragrance of Frost Grapes, and Out of Cassiopeia. The chapbook contest is funded in part by a grant from the estate of John King and Mary Harvey Ottley and a gift from Virginia Dickson.
The entry fee entitles all submitters to a copy of the winning chapbook. Length and form: Open, although manuscripts associated with the haiku or other “Eastern” forms are given priority. Theme: Any.
The fee to enter is $25 for non-members. Deadline is November 15, 2021.
