The winner receives $3,000 and publication of the winning manuscript in the United States and United Kingdom in the Autumn of 2010. Entrants may not have published more than one previous collection of poems, though they may have published an unlimited number of books belonging to other genres, and individual poems from the submitted collection may have been published in magazines, journals, anthologies, chapbooks of 32 pages or less, or self-published books of 46 pages or less. Manuscripts must be in English, and the original work of the entrant (though as much as one third of the poems they contain can consist of public-domain or permission-secured translations). Manuscripts must be a minimum of 50 and a maximum of 100 pages.
