Emerging Writer's Contest Opens

Submit now to the 2013 Ploughshares Emerging Writer's Contest!  The contest is open from today to April 2 at 12:00 noon EST.  One winner in each genre—fiction, poetry, and nonfiction—will receive $1,000 and publication.  The submission fee is $24 and includes a one-year subscription to Ploughshares, so it's a win-win situation.  Psst, if you are subscribed through the 2013 Winter Issue, you can submit for free!

We consider you "emerging" if you haven't published or self-published a book.

For more information, or to submit, visit www.pshares.org/EmergingAward.

You can read winning submissions from last year on our website.  We look forward to reading your work!

Sincerely,

The Ploughshares Staff
