Deadline 15 August

Description

The North Caroline Humanities Council calls for submissions of original, unpublished writings in fiction, nonfiction or poetry portraying aspects of the life and persons in North Carolina.

Guidelines

Authors should submit seven copies of an original work of poetry or prose up to 2,500 words that haven't been published before. Works should be typed and double-spaced and the author's name should not be written anywhere on the submission.
Since no electronic submissions are accepted, entries can be sent to:
North Carolina Humanities Council, 122 N. Elm Street, Suite 601,  Greensboro, NC, 27401.

Prize

The winner of the Linda Flowers Literary Awards receives a cash prize of $500, publication in North Carolina Conversations, and a week-long residency at Weymouth Center for the Arts and Humanities in Southern Pines, North Carolina.
