When will you have the online system for entries set? Will it be up in time for this contest?
Marion,
We are waiting on our design team… so we don’t really know. They said a week… it’s been 3 months… so we’re having some issues concerning processing credit cards. I’d suggest applying through snail mail.
All best,
JL
You might consider using paypal to process as that can be done easily. Not sure if I remember how snail mail works. Paper checks? Stamps? Licking enveleopes? Ugghh!
In AWP Chronicle the short short deadline is by March 15; on your site it says by May 1. Which one is the right one?
Thanks,
Tony
The date has been pushed back to May 1st! MAYDAY. Thanks for pointing that out.
Cool. Thanks for the quick response!
May writers submit more than one short short story (separately with separate entry fees of course)?
thanks
sks
yes yes yes
Is the entry deadline still May 1st? I would love to be considered.
yes!

Your submission guidelines say nothing about not accepting previously published work. Do you accept submissions that were previously published online only (not in print form)?
no previously published work. thanks for the catch.

Wow I must confess you make some very terncahnt points.
For the Short Nonfiction Essay contest, can it be on any topic?, or are there specific topics?
anything goes!
Thanks!
ummm…I submitted 5 poems today (april 8) and i think you only got one (?) Is it $3 per poem? or $3 per submission of 5 poems? doh ~ i need donuts…
3 dollars per manuscript… so all 5 poems
For the non-fiction essay, does the 1000 word limit include footnotes?
yeah, 1,000 words including footnotes.

Just curious about the winners/finalists for the Spring Short Short Fiction contest. Will that info be coming soon? Also, I submitted a story in February via Manuscript Hub. Are you still reading those? Thanks!
Toni,
Still working on the mshub stuff. Also we’ll announce in three or so weeks about the short short fiction contest.
All love,
Jake
Majalos plenny, Jake!
Will all entrants to the short short story contest be notified of the results via email? Thanks!
Annam,
We’ll post winners on our website and notify via email and snail mail.

When will the winners of the concentrated nonfiction contest be announced?
Thanks!
Paige,
we’ll have it all settled by mid july for both contests.
all best,
Jake
There will be an official announcement about the contests up on our blog in the next few days. Keep your eyes peeled.

Question about what you consider previously published. If I have a story that I’ve posted on my website, do you consider that previously published? Thanks for the clarification.
Nope. We do not consider that previously published.
P&W is advertising the next short short contest, and I have yet to see any posting of who won the 2010 contest, nor have I ever received an email or snail mail notification. Where can the list of winners be found?
Do you accept contest entries from Canada?
Yes
If you submit 3 stories for the short fiction contest does each one require a separate $15 entry fee or does one fee cover all 3?
Is the midnight deadline EST?
When will the 2011 spring short short contest results be announced?
Hey did you guys announce the winners of the poetry contest? My submission still reads “In Progress.”
When will you guys announce the short story contest winner?
Hello:
I am also wondering whether winners for the poetry contest have been chosen? My entry still says “In Progress.” If the contest is still active, I will need to withdraw one poem.
Thank you!
Any winners announced for the 2010 Poetry Competition yet?
Are names to appear on poems, or just on a cover sheet?
Either way is fine, Melissa. Thanks.
Out if curiosity, has the winner of this year’s poetry contest been announced?
Not yet, Julian. Please stay posted. -Lawrence
I’m not sure the place you are getting your information, but good topic. I must spend a while finding out more or working out more. Thank you for great information I used to be on the lookout for this info for my mission.
