With a hat tip to Stephen D. Rogers we have the Al Blanchard Award contest sponsored by Crime Bake. Stories can be no more than 5000 words written by a New England author or set in New England. The deadline is April 30,2010 and there's no fee to enter. The winner receives $100 and publication in the Crime Bake conference anthology. You can find all the details at http://www.crimebake.org/Al.htm Mystery/crime genre only.

Editor, David Cranmer, is still looking for submissions for BTAP's print anthology. The deadline is January 31. http://davidcranmer.blogspot.com/2010/01/beat-to-pulp-print-anthology-deadline.html David's looking for pirate and adventure stories. You can find the submission guidelines here http://www.beattoapulp.com/guidelines.htm

For those of you with a literary bend to your writing, NewPages.com posted a call for submissions list on January 17. Lots of good stuff here http://www.newpages.com/literary/submissions.htm

Charles Tan has an interview up on his blog with GUD editor, Kaolin Fire. http://charles-tan.blogspot.com/2010/01/interview-kaolin-fire.html GUD is a paying market (3cents a word) that has just opened for new submissions. They publish in all genres. http://www.gudmagazine.com And GUD stands for Greatest Uncommon Denominator.

And there's a new flash market called Bloody Bridge Review that's looking for stories under 500 words. http://www.bloodybridge.blogspot.com/ This is a non-paying market.
