New2theScene is a platform for the discovery of new or not yet familiar literary talent. They sell the books of authors who aren’t bestsellers (yet), promoting them through their podcast, articles, blogs, social media and so on. They have now launched their latest poetry competition (it opens for entries on 5th October 2025). It’s open to published poets to amateurs from around the world and it will be judged by a guest author (tbc).
Although the cash prize isn’t as big as some out there (well, vouchers for this one), the winner will also be interviewed on the New2theScene podcast and given exposure on the socials, so it could be a great opportunity to get your writing out there.
