The Masters Review Short Story Award for New Writers

January 10, 2017Contests, Literary7000 Words, Amy Williams, Authors, Digital Publishing, Fiction, Irene Goodman Literary Agency, Jean V. Nagger Literary, Laura Biagi, Manuscript, Monetary Prize, Publication, Short Story, Short Story Award For New Writers, Stories, Style, The Masters Review, The Williams Agency, Victoria Marini, Writingpdpabst

The winning story will be awarded $2000 and publication online. Second and third place stories will be awarded publication and $200 and $100 respectively. All winners and honorable mentions will receive agency review by: Amy Williams of The Williams Agency, Victoria Marini from Irene Goodman, and Laura Biagi from Jean V. Naggar Literary Agency, Inc. We want you to succeed, and we want your writing to be read. It’s been our mission to support emerging writers since day one.

They say they don’t have any preferences topically or in terms of style. They’re simply looking for the best. Also, they don’t define, nor are we interested in, stories identified by their genre. However, they consider themselves a publication that focuses on literary fiction and are looking for stories that dazzle, take chances, are bold — and do so by focusing on more than plot.

You can check out the complete guidelines for submissions and previous winners here. Please note the deadline to enter is January 15, 2017.
