*Advice on Writing Contests:  

When considering contests, 看看他们是如何处理往届获奖者的作品的:是否有往届获奖者的名单? Where you can go to read or have access to the winning pieces of writing? Who are the judges? Are they people who you would read yourself? If you win, what kind of audience would you receive for your work? Research contests and their reputations online. Use places like duotrope.com, Poets and Writers (pw.org), the New Pages (newpages.com), or The Review Review (thereviewreview.net), to see whether there is any other information about the contest from other sources.

NewPage Big List of Writing Contests

The Big List of Writing Contests features a comprehensive list of magazine contests, book contests, chapbook contests, writing contests, audio contests, video contests, and competitions from independent publishers, literary magazines, alternative magazines, creative writing programs, and writing conferences and festivals.

11 Literary Magazines Accepting Writing and Art from Teens

Check out the link here!

Pen to Paper Writing Group

What we’re about

We write. We share. We live.
Pen to Paper is Indy’s most notorious coterie of misfit writers.
What We Do
In its simplest form, we write stuff, share it with each other, and talk about it. Of course, to organize this effort requires a few rules, a calendar, and a sextant.
We critique each others written material and provide creative support, constructive criticism, and sage advice.
Who May Join
If you write, you may join. Hell, even if you don’t write, give us a whirl, as long as you provide us with homemade cookies and lemonade.
We accept people at all skill levels, from the doe-eyed novice to the curmudgeonly expert.
If you want to write or improve your writing, then you’ve come to the right place.
We critique all manner of writing, be it fiction, non-fiction, poetry, travelogues, erotica, technical manuals … if it has words, we’ll read it.
So, You Want to Join
Follow these simple steps to initiate yourself into our mysteries:
1) Check out the Newbies page on our website at http://www.pentopaperblog.org/newbies-start-here/
2) Check out our guiding principles on our website at http://www.pentopaperblog.org/rules-of-write-club/
3) Come to a meeting.

It’s really that simple. For what are you waiting? An incorrectly placed preposition?
Note: It may appear from the RSVP’s that attendance is sparse. That is not really the case. We’ve been around so long that members rarely RSVP anymore.

Formerly known as Crazyhorseswamp pink publishes fiction, poetry, and nonfiction on a semi-monthly basis.

Poems receive $40 each, and we pay $0.05 a word for prose. Maximum payout for accepted work is $200.

Submissions of fiction and nonfiction can be up to 7,500 words in length. 我们已经发表了超出这个范围的杰出作品,但这是不寻常的. For poetry, please submit a set of 3-6 poems. We accept simultaneous submissions for all genres. More specific guidelines for each genre can be found below.

It typically takes us 12-16 weeks to respond to submissions.

Washington Post Seeking Op-eds

In our effort to bring in more voices from across America, 《十大最好的网赌平台》的评论部希望听取来自不同背景的作者的意见, interests and outlooks. The one constant should be that they are good writers with strong viewpoints, and value facts and reasoned argument over invective. We’ll welcome one-off submissions, or pieces on breaking news events that we solicit, but we also hope that some writers will develop into regular contributors.

《十大最好的网赌平台》的接受门槛很高:我们收到了大量的专栏文章,但版面有限, 因此,即使是有价值的专栏文章,如果不能满足我们目前的需求,也可能不会被接受. 但我们为全国各地的专栏文章提供了一个指定的地点确实增加了你的投稿在这里找到立足之地的可能性. (A good target length for op-eds is 750-800 words.)

Here are some examples of writing that would fit into this category. As you can see, the range of topics is broad – political, personal, analytical, humorous, legal, business-oriented, you name it. 把他们联系在一起的是,他们不是来自华盛顿、大学、智库或其他常见的观点文章来源. 他们带来了第一手的经验或实地的知识,这些知识对作者来说可能是当地的,但很容易引起各地读者的兴趣.

额外提示:最好将稿件以附件和粘贴的形式发送(在邮件中阅读速度最快), but if there are links within the text, they convert more easily from a document).

Send op-eds to Mark Lasswell, Mark.Lasswell@washpost.com
