The Audacious Love Letter Contest

Ends on

In celebration of Love Letter to a Garden, we are launching a love letter contest for paid subscribers. Write a love letter to a person, a place, an idea, whatever inspires you. We are only interested in prose or visual stories, which is to say we are not considering poetry despite the inherent romance of that genre. 

We will be accepting entries from now until June 30th at midnight. Letters should be no longer than 1,500 words. The winner will receive $1,500, publication in The Audacity, and a one-hour Zoom session where I offer feedback on up to 25 pages (double-spaced) of your fiction or non-fiction prose. Winners will be announced by September 1st. All entrants who are annual Audacity subscribers will also receive a copy of Love Letter to a Garden. Books will be shipped out in early July.

We use Submittable to accept and review our submissions.
