We are now accepting submissions for our 2007 Fiction/Non-Fiction Contest
(deadline=August 30, 2007)

Up to $1300 worth of prizes!!

We seek to encourage others to write/publish new works and to raise funds in order to offer grants and prizes to up-and-coming writers. With that in mind, all entries received will be automatically entered in a drawing for their manuscript to receive one of five FREE full critiques (a $25 value)--but you can't win that--or any of our other prizes, if you don't enter.  Better hurry! 

Congratulations to our 2006 winners!
Ginny Arata (1st), LeAnne Ray (2nd) and Elaine Greensmith Jordan (3rd)
