Their tagline is, ‘Home of the Any Genre Chapbook Contest’. They want a chapbook in any genre, of 15-50 pages. The prize accepts submissions from “anyone writing in the English language who has not previously published a full-length book (defined as a solely authored work of more than 50 pages, self-publishing included) . Works may be jointly authored by multiple writers or artists…. Translations are not eligible for this prize, nor are previously published or self-published books, though individual parts of a manuscript may have been previously published or produced.” Please note, they will only accept up to 100 fee-free submissions, so presumably those may close earlier than the deadline. The winner also gets 20 copies of the chapbook.
Value: $250
Deadline: 15 December 2025, or until filled
