As a reminder, here are the basic guidelines. For more details and the application, go to the WAC web site:
- You may submit a fiction piece of no more than 25 printed pages typed double-spaced using a 12-point standard font. For a book excerpt, you may provide a synopsis, but it will be included in the 25-page limit.
- Submit two copies of your manuscript on standard white paper (photocopies O.K.). It may be double-sided to save on paper and postage.
- Do not staple manuscripts or use any manuscript cover or binder.
- Writing may have been previously published, but don’t submit reprints; published work must be retyped to conform to the rest of the manuscript.
- Pages must be numbered; include title of work and page number on each page.
- Your name must not appear anywhere on the manuscript.
- If you submit more than the allowable page limits, extra pages will be removed.
- Do not send supplementary materials (letters, resumes, etc.).
- You may enter the competition only once, by June 20, 2008. Mail to Michael Shay, Wyoming Arts Council, 2320 Capitol Ave., Cheyenne, WY 82002, ATTN: 2009 Creative Writing Fellowships.
