*NEW* We are co-sponsoring yet another writing contest: Quill and Keyboard, a not-for-profit organization, comprised of high school students, is hosting a writing contest for teenage authors. With the rise of technology like ChatGPT, they realized that it is even more critical to provide more opportunities to creative writers. Skipping Stones Magazine has agreed to cosponsor their contest and publish winners in categories like the Personal Essays, Song Lyrics, poetry, and Journalism, out of the 15 categories (Poetry, Song Lyrics, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Short Story, Personal Essays, Novel Writing, Journalism, Humor, Flash Fiction, Dramatic Script, Critical Essays, Horror, Philosophy, Speeches, and Classic Literary Adaptations) that one can enter. There is no entry fee for this contest.
Entries due by: May 20, 2023. You can download the details of the contest here.
