The 2007 SouthWest Writers Contest

The 2007 SouthWest Writers Contest encourages and honors excellence in writing. The contest is open to every sentient being in the entire universe, without exception.

Editors and literary agents judge all entries in each category and critique the top three. All entries receive a written critique by a qualified consultant.

Highly qualified new critiquers have been selected for three categories in this year’s contest: Mainstream or Literary Novel, Screenplay, and Poetry.

Finalists are notified by mail and listed on the SWW website with the title of their entry.

First, second and third place winners receive cash prizes of $150, $100 and $50, respectively.

First place winners also compete for the $1000 Storyteller Award.

Winners are honored at a contest awards banquet (tba).
