I would rather place in this competition than any other -- not because of the very generous money award but because of its judges & the exceptional quality of the poetry of its previous winners: Jude Nutter, Michael Lavers, Abigail Parry, Aniqah Choudhri... The list goes on and on

Porter also commended work by the award-winning author Susannah Dickey, who was longlisted for the Sunday Times Short Story Award last year; Leah Naomi Green, Lance Larsen, and Sammy Weaver, former winner of the prize.
