WFNB Invites Writers to Enter 2013 Literary Competition

The pieces you pen may earn you a bit of fame and fortune with over $2,000 in cash prizes to be awarded to top submissions of poetry and prose. Plus, the competition has been the launch pad for many published works since WFNB first welcomed entries in 1985.

Bailey Prize, which awards $400 for the first place poetry manuscript ; the Richards Prize, also valued at $400, for the winning submission in one of three categories: collection of short stories, a short novel, or substantial portion of a longer novel; and the Sheree Fitch Prize for Fiction, which is open to young writers, up to age 18, and worth $100.
