Glimmer Train Short Story Award for New Writers

Wondering what to do with the devastatingly brilliant stories you’ve been working on in your StoryStudio workshop?  Itching to get your name out there and publish? Glimmer Train, a literary magazine out of Portland, OR, has a Short Story Award for New Writers.

According to their website, “We’re looking for original, unpublished stories by writers whose fiction has not been printed in a publication with a circulation over 5,000. Word count range: 500 - 12,000. First-place wins $1,200 and publication in Glimmer Train Stories Issue 72. Second- and third-place winners win $500/$300 (or, if chosen for publication, $700).”

Deadline is May 31.  More info on this competition can be found here

Good luck StoryStudioers!  Make us proud!
