Short
Fiction in all Disciplines 2010
The Board of Directors of
The Arch and Bruce Brown Foundation is pleased to announce a Writing
Competition for the Foundation’s 2010 writing grants. Submissions
may include Short Stories, One-act Plays or short film or video
projects. All works must present the gay and lesbian lifestyle in a
positive manner and be based on, or directly inspired by, a historic
person or event. (You may think your affair with the dancer from
the Russian ballet was historic, but it doesn’t count.) One work per
author, please.
All works must be
unpublished, original, and in English. Adaptations or translations
of other works of fiction are not acceptable. The winners selected
by the judges will be announced the following May and will receive a
cash award of $1,000 (not limited to a single winner).
All
submissions must be postmarked by midnight November 30, 2010. Mail
manuscript, including author’s name, address, phone number, a note
on the historical inspiration for the work. Manuscripts can not be
returned because of the large numbers of submissions.
