Awards and Prizes

This list features competitions for prizes and awards. Entries that include deadlines remain posted until the deadline has passed; the others appear for three months.

To submit a new item, please complete our online form. Because submissions are limited to 300 words, contributors should include an e-mail or Web site address with more detailed information. A particular competition may not be announced more often than once a year. The MLA will not accept submissions that, in its judgment, are outside the subject areas of this listing.
