TENTH GLASS WOMAN PRIZE

The Tenth Glass Woman Prize will be awarded for a work of short fiction or creative non-fiction (prose) written by a woman.

Length: between 50 and 5,000 words.

The top prize for the tenth Glass Woman Prize award is US $500 and possible (but not obligatory) online publication; there will also be one runner up prize of $100 and one runner up prize of $50, together with possible (but not obligatory) online publication.

In addition, there will be two further Anonymous Angel awards of $100 each, thanks to a generous donation from a Canadian woman author who wishes to remain anonymous.

Subject is open, but must be of significance to women. The criterion is passion, excellence, and authenticity in the woman’s writing voice. Previously published work and simultaneous submissions are OK. Copyright is retained by the author.

There is no reading fee.

Previous winners are welcome to submit again for any subsequent prize.

The submission period for the Tenth Glass Woman Prize began March 22, 2011 and goes through September 21, 2011.

Submission deadline: September 21, 2011 (receipt date; anything received after that date will be considered for a future prize).

The organizers promise that every submission will be read with respect and with commitment to the voices of women in this world.
