Contest: Are You a Writer Mama (or Papa)?
Writer’s Digest wants to hear from you on the topic of “When Parenting and Writing Collide.” Write your best original, unpublished parenting-and-writing story in a 500-word essay and email it to publicity(at)fwpubs.com with “Writer Mama contest” in the subject line.
Christina Katz, author of Writer Mama: How to Raise a Writing Career Alongside Your Kids will select the top three entries. The first-place entry will be published in an upcoming issue of “Writer’s Digest” magazine; second- and third-place entries will be posted on WriterMama.com. All winners will receive a signed copy of “Writer Mama.” All entries must be e-mailed by March 31.
The fine print: The entry must be written in the body of the e-mail; attachments will not be accepted or opened. Each entry should include your name, address, telephone number and e-mail address. Only the winning writers will be contacted, and entries will not be returned. “Writer’s Digest” retains first-time rights to run the winning entries in the magazine and/or on their website or associated websites, after which all rights return to the author. The decisions of the editors are final.
