The theme for this year's competition, run in association with The Forum Millennium Library in Norwich, was 'Earth from the air'. Entrants were asked to respond to the astounding aerial photographs of world-renowned artist Yann Arthus-Bertrand. The competition was judged by TS Eliot prize-winning poet George Szirtes. Winners read their work at Norwich Café Writers in July.
