$250 Irreantum Fiction Contest
All unsolicited fiction and creative nonfiction submissions received during our submission window will be considered for that year's Irreantum Fiction Contest and the Charlotte and Eugene England Personal Essay contest, respectively, and must be submitted according to contest rules. The submission window for each year's contest is January 1st-May 31st. Any submission received outside the submission window will not be considered; however, we encourage authors to consider resubmitting the following year after January 1st. The first-place author will be awarded $250, second place $175, and third place $100 (unless judges determine that no entries are of sufficient quality to merit awards). Publication is not guaranteed, but winners agree to give Irreantum first publication rights. Any unpublished fictional form up to 8,500 words will be considered, including short stories and excerpts from novels. Because Irreantum is a literary journal dedicated to exploring Mormon culture, entries must relate to the Mormon experience in some way. Authors need not be LDS. Individuals may submit a maximum of two entries. Irreantum staff and members of the AML board are not eligible. Deadline: May 31. (More information HERE.)
