The May/June issue of Poets & Writers Magazine is out. This issue focuses on writing contests. The special section includes a "guide to the competitions that turn manuscripts into books", so hurry down to your local newsstand and pick up a copy, because that part isn't available online.

But don't despair! As always, the online writing contests database is up-to-date and ready to help you find the right grant, award, or contest for your poetry, fiction, or creative nonfiction.

Got some snazzy, drupalicious goodness going on with the writing contests database over at Poets & Writers--including a new calendar view of the submission calendar. Keep up-to-date on the upcoming deadlines whichever way you want to look at it. It's all still carefully screened by the P&W Magazine staff and includes full contact info and submission details. Same wholesome goodness--fancy new package.
