August is Poetry Month in Australia. Created in 2021 by Red Room Poetry, it is happening again in 2022.

This year, it’ll be our first time participating. As our way of paying it forward, we’re holding a Poetry Writing Contest just for you and our worldwide community readers and audiences.

How to Join

Plus, joining is FREE.
