The forums on Manga scan site
OneManga.com are organising a Poetry Contest for the next 2 weeks. The theme of this contest is "Song". Basically, you're supposed to listen to a song & then come up with a poem on it.
Full details can be found
here. There's a procedure for submission, so my advice is read carefully
The contest closes on 2nd July, 2008.
The theme might be a bit simplistic, but I'm posting this information up here should any of you be interested in joining. Definitely since this thread started I've seen some good writing. And a contest (no matter how small it is) is always a good avenue for budding writers to see where they stand relative to fellow writers with similar interests/ skill levels.
Maybe soon we can organise one of these here on Animesuki
