I am happy to announce that I am the fiction judge for this year's Maureen Egen Writers Exchange Award. (The poetry judge is Frank X. Walker.) This wonderful opportunity has been around since 1984 and is sponsored by Poets and Writers.

Each year, the contest is open to emerging writers from a single state-- this time it's WASHINGTON, DC. The winners will be flown to New York for five days-- all expenses paid. While in NYC, they will give a public reading and meet with agents, editors, and publishers.

Truck on over to PW for more info and get your applications ready!
