The Canadian Writers' Contest Calendar 2006
Manufacturer: White Mountain Publications ProductGroup: Book Binding: Mass Market Paperback ASIN: 1894747089 |
Book Description
First of all--it's an eighty-page BOOK, not a wall calendar.Started in 1995 by Wordwrights Canada's Susan Ioannou, who published the issues through 1998, The Canadian Writers' Contest Calendar, the publication was acquired by White Mountain Publications in 2003. In short, each edition contains 80 pages of detailed information on Canadian writing contests, awards and prizes, organized month by month according to their deadline dates. This reference makes much-needed information available for writers and gives them an incentive to polish and disseminate their work. By promoting the contests it also helps our literary magazines to stay afloat.
Awards for published books have also been listed so that authors and small publishers can consider their entries. Profiling our Canadian Awards can only mean greater importance is placed on them, and a greater understanding of their cultural significance can be obtained from coast-to-coast. They are listed in the Contest Calendar because, as a writer, you should know about them as well. Many of you are small publishers; some of you have books published by smaller presses. If you think your book may qualify for an award, a quick consultation with your publisher may mean the difference between it being entered or not. And I think it helps for you to know what kinds of awards there are for your goal-setting. But to bring the book back down to size, and keep it focused on its usefulness to writers the name of the award, the deadline, the genre and the contact information are the only information printed in the book; the full information is available here from the contacts given in the book.
If you think that you'd ever have time to write and still know where to find all this information, collect it, and organize it, let me know. There are 427 entries in the 2005 edition, some found very few other places yet. Some contest information is not available on the internet. Anyone who says they could compile all of this on their own, has never tried to do it.
There is an exciting diversity of opportunities for Canadian writers. And it's all in one place so you don't have to look for them.
