Submit to ‘WP&I’ Writing Contest

The deadline for submissions to Wisconsin People & Ideas’ annual fiction and poetry contest is March 15.

The magazine hosts its annual writing contests – which provide cash, prizes and publication – for Wisconsin residents age 18 and older. First-place winners receive $500 and one-week artist residencies at the Shake Rag Alley Center for the Arts in Mineral Point. Second-place winners receive $250, and third-place winners receive $100. First- through third-place winning stories and poems are published in print and online issues of Wisconsin People & Ideas, and all award-winning writers are invited to read their work at a special Wisconsin Book Festival event.
