[Updated 15 August 2018: At the time this post was written in 2016, the Melita Hume Prize was free to enter. In 2018 there is now a submission charge. Please note that at the time I was longlisted for the Melita Hume Prize in 2014, and Joseph Robert longlisted for the Melita Hume Prize in 2015, there were no submission fees to enter.]
Here’s to the future, everyone! May 2016 be a productive and creative year for us all.

To celebrate all things literary for 2016, here is a competition link for the Melita Hume prize, which is how I got my poetry pamphlet, A Model Archaeologist published. Enjoy!
