Members Only ● Works Published in 2019
Deadline: Midnight March 1st, 2020
The InScribe Winter Contest is now open for submissions by InScribe members who had writing published in 2019.
Professional writers/judges will follow the rubrics posted on the InScribe website to mark and provide commentary on each piece. (If fewer than 4 submissions are received in a category, the category will be closed and fees will be returned). One prize of $100 will be awarded to the winning submission in each category. Prizes will be awarded by April 30, 2020, or sooner. Please check the publicly posted rubrics for your Winter Contest submissions.
Criteria:
· All entries must have been published between January 1 and December 31 of 2019
· Publication sources include magazines, anthologies, newspapers, online publications, etc.
· Not accepted: online pieces that you self-published on your own online site. They must be published on a 3rd party site.

· Fee: $30 per entry by cheque (includes commentary by a professional writer/judge).
· Email two copies of each piece to contests@inscribe.org by midnight March 1st, 2020
· 1) The first copy should be a scan of your published piece (or a link). It must clearly show your name as author, the date of publication, and name of publication (magazine etc.)
2). The second copy will be exactly the same piece but without your name, and without any photos, advertising, name of the publication source or any other distraction. Please block these out of the scanned piece. If that is not possible, then please re-type it into a Word or PDF Document. Do not put your name on it. This copy will be sent on to the judge. The goal is to make all pieces consistent in appearance, without advertising or pictures, and without the author’s name, to eliminate bias and distractions for the judges.
