The contest is officially open, and the deadline to submit is noon EST, Friday, March 3. Winners will be announced on March 4.
To enter the contest, submit a grammar-related poem using the form below.
We encourage participants to share their poems on social media by tagging ACES and using the hashtag #GrammarDay.
Our celebrity judges might pay attention to meter or rhyme, some might prefer free verse to haiku, but submit in whatever poetry form makes you happy. Entries will be primarily judged on how well they make a point about the language, which can include grammar, usage, typos, writing, and editing.
The winning poet will receive a variety of goodies perfect for any editor, including a one-year membership to ACES: The Society for Editing,
