The Masters Review is proud to announce our first chapbook contest! The winning writer
will be awarded $3000, manuscript publication, a subscription to
Journal of the Month, and 50 contributor copies. The incredible
Steve Almond is judging the inaugural contest!
We’re seeking to celebrate bold, original voices within a single,
cohesive manuscript of 25 to 40 pages. We’re interested in
collections of short fiction, essays, flash fiction,
novellas/novelettes, longform fiction or essays, and any
combination thereof, provided the manuscripts are complete (no
excerpts, chapters, works-in-progress, or other incomplete work),
and function cohesively.
The Masters
Review staff will select a shortlist of 5-10
chapbooks to pass along to Steve Almond, who will
select the winning manuscript. Mr. Almond will provide a brief
foreword/introduction for the manuscript upon publication. The
published manuscript will be available for sale as a physical
copy and distributed digitally through our newsletter.
Entry fee: $25
Deadline: November 15, 2020
