Congratulations!
The judges from this first round, Dr. Melissa Girard and Dr. Christina Walter, have selected your poems for the Storymoja Hay Poetry Shortlist. The shortlist follows my signature.
Your poems have been advanced to Kenyan judges who will select the top three poems. The judges have received blind submissions. They do not know your identities, so the contest will strive to remain fair.
Thank you for submitting your work.
And the best of good wishes!
Sincerely,
Keguro Macharia
