#Mondayblogs: June (Part 1 of 2) #Writing #Contests #amwriting #fiction #poetry

So there is a lot of information here! And it can certainly be frustrating if your pocketbook will not allow you to enter every competition available to you. Therefore, I suggest that you think about what work you have ready (what is your best?) Submit those few perfect/near-perfect stories/poems to the competitions you like best or think are best suited--however many your budget allows. Also, don't forget that entry fees are tax-deductable, writers ;)

Good luck!
