If you've written a story up to 7500 words (not a novel excerpt) you might be interested in the writing contest sponsored by Phoebe Journal. Here are the basics:
- All entries should include a cover letter with the submission’s title and author’s contact information (name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address).
- Your name and contact information must not appear anywhere else on the manuscript.
- You may submit multiple entries, but must pay an entry fee for each new submission.
- We will not accept mailed submissions. Please use our online submission manager.
The deadline is February 1, 2014, the prize is $1000, publication in Phoebe, and a one-year subscription. The entry fee is $17.
They are also running contests for nonfiction and poetry, with similar terms. You can get full terms and conditions here: http://www.phoebejournal.com/2014-winter-writing-contests/
