Enter to win the 2025 Vermont Writers’ Prize

Annual prizes for poetry and prose celebrating Vermont are awarded by Green Mountain Power and Vermont Magazine. Winning entries in each category are published in the summer issue of Vermont Magazine and receive $1,250. The deadline to enter is Jan. 1, 2025.

Entries are open for the 2025 Vermont Writers’ Prize, awarded each year in two categories: prose and poetry. This year marks the 35th year of the prize, celebrating all things Vermont. The prize is open to Vermont residents, and your poem, short story, essay, or play should explore Vermont – its people, places, values, or history.

“Vermont is always changing, and it is so inspiring to read the entries and see how writers express the Vermont experience,” said Kristin Carlson, a GMP vice president who serves as a judge for the prize. “Vermont means so many things to different people – and we invite everyone to share their story or poem.”

You can learn more details and submit your entry for the 2025 Vermont Writers’ Prize at vermontwritersprize.submittable.com. The deadline to enter is Jan. 1, 2025.
