About Places to Publish

In an ongoing effort to encourage writers to not just write,
but to pursue the craft on a professional level I offer links
and information I have found useful.

Phoebe sponsors an annual Fiction Contest. The author of the winning story for the winter contest will receive $1,000 and publication in the Fall issue of Phoebe.

All entries should include a cover letter with your name, address, the title of the story to be considered, and a brief biography. Your name and address should not appear anywhere on the story.

Please enclose the $15 entry fee (check or money order payable to Phoebe/GMU), and a SASE for contest results. Manuscripts will not be returned. All writers submitting to the contest will receive a copy of the Fall 2009 issue.

The Phoebe Winter Fiction Contest affords Phoebe the opportunity to read a diverse selection of stories from which the journal has each year selected pieces for publication. The editors of Phoebe thank you for your interest and look forward to reading your work.

I like that you get a copy of the journal for your entry fee. That is always nice.

Phoebe also takes regular submissions...

Phoebe seeks to publish quality writing. Do not send formulaic writing, romance fiction, or greeting-card poetry. We do not consider previously published work. We encourage writers to read our
Mission Statement and to order back issues to familiarize themselves with what we will publish.
