ANNOUCEMENT: Our fourth annual Writing Competition is now up!
Our theme for this year’s writing contest is “Thinking about Rome.” We are looking for stories and poems about the perennial nature of human experiences, whether they happened yesterday or two thousand years ago, as well as the intersection of our struggles today and those of times long past. Submissions can be about the echoes of the classical world in modernity, the shadow of modernity in the classical world, or even about the inspiration one draws from those that came before them. The prompt is not limited to these ideas; we wish to keep the topic broad so as to encourage a wide array of ideas. And life is full of ups and downs, so the mood need not be limited to themes of victory and triumph, but can also cover pensiveness, heartbreak, or anything else.
There are two submission categories: Poetry (of any style) and Short Story (fiction).
Two $600 prizes for best in each category
Two $400 prizes for the runner-up in each category
Submissions open on March 1st - spread the word!
