It is easier to see the beauty in a finished project than to find pleasure in the process, but few things worth our effort are consistently easy. Push past the tedium and watch your writing grow.
Find details about every creative writing competition—including poetry contests, short story competitions, essay contests, awards for novels, grants for translators, and more—that we’ve published in the Grants & Awards section of Poets & Writers Magazine during the past year. We carefully review the practices and policies of each contest before including it in the Writing Contests database, the most trusted resource for legitimate writing contests available anywhere.
