Distinguished Writing Contest
In honor of the distinguished author Nelson Algren, who articulated the world of "drunks, pimps, prostitutes, freaks, drug addicts, prize fighters, corrupt politicians, and hoodlums" (Art Shay), the also distinguished Chicago Tribune continues their literary award contest. If you're a USA citizen, dot your "i"s and "j"s, and cross your "f"s, "t"s, and "x"s, then further qualify your short story manuscript(s) with these rules and regulations.
Finally, submit one or two of your masterpieces of up to 8,000 words each here by January 31, 2019 for a chance at up to $3,500.
