We award all prizes, regardless of how few entries we receive. Some contests advertise big awards, but in the "fine print" you see that the prizes are only paid if a certain number of poets enter. Utmost is different. We guarantee to pay all prizes in our poetry contests, and we always announce publicly the winners.

If you are a Christian who writes spiritual poetry or religious poetry be sure to bookmark our site. We sponsor various contests throughout the year.
