+- The **Hugh MacDiarmaid Tassie for Poetry**: up to 80 lines of original Scots poetry.
+
+Writers new and old are all welcome, so don’t hold back! We look forward to having your entries!
+
+You can enter for £5 for one category, £10 for two or £12 for all three, whether that’s all in the
+same category or spread across the three. You can submit either by email or by post.
+
