Writing in the Margins: Briarpatch’s 13th annual poetry, creative non-fiction, and photography contest

[ https://briarpatchmagazine.com/writingi ... ng-contest ]

Briarpatch is accepting submissions of original, unpublished writing and photography for our 13th annual Writing in the Margins contest. This year the categories are creative non-fiction, poetry, and documentary photography. Have your work seen by judges Helen Knott (creative non-fiction), Otoniya J. Okot Bitek (poetry), and Kevin Settee (photography).

Briarpatch is seeking fresh writing and photography that brings to life issues of political, social, and environmental justice. We want writing and photos from the edges – from new creators who have something important to say, or from longtime creators who can show us a new way of seeing things.

Winning entries in each category will receive cash prizes of $500 and will be published in Briarpatch, an award-winning, nationally distributed magazine of culture and politics. Runners-up in each category will receive cash prizes of $150 and will be published online.

The deadline for submissions is November 20, 2023. Entrance costs $25 and includes a one-year subscription to Briarpatch (entrance details are below, and we have a limited number of bursaries for low-income writers and photographers).
