2084 Annual Competition
The 2084 Literary Competition is a Poetry contest where writers from every country can participate. The theme: write something that pertains to a bigger, brighter future. Anything futuristic counts!
We especially encourage writers from second and third-world countries to submit, though everyone is welcome.
