In the print edition of our March/April 2009 [2] issue, we described Narrative Magazine's Story Contest as the "Third-Person Story Contest." Since we went to press, Narrative [3] expanded the scope of the award and is now accepting entries written from any point of view.

The $3,000 award will be given three times a year for a short story, a short short story, an essay, or an excerpt from a work of fiction or creative nonfiction of no more than 10,000 words. There is a $20 entry fee, and the deadline is March 31. Visit our Deadlines [4] section for more upcoming grants and awards or our Grants & Awards database [5], if you'd rather search a year's worth.
