Whether you’re a beginner or advanced writer, if you’re looking for places to send your work, you should put contests on your list. The Canadian Writers’ Contest Calendar gives a full listing of contests in Canada arranged by deadline date. It lists contests for short stories, poetry, children’s writing, novels, and non-fiction – contests for just about everyone.
The 2012 edition is now available and costs just $20 at one of Brian Henry's workshops or classes or $23.50 by mail (all taxes and shipping included).
Update, June 24, 2012:
The Contest Calendar is now on sale for $5 off: just $15 at one of Brian Henry's workshops or classes or $18.50 by mail or Interac (all taxes and shipping included.) Order soon.
