**NOTICE: SUBMISSION DATE HAS CHANGED**

 

Permafrost sponsors two annual literary contests. No one affiliated with UAF is in any way eligible to enter. Submissions will be read after the March 15 deadline, and notification will be mailed on May 10.

Midnight Sun Chapbook Contest
(Formerly the Susan Blalock Chapbook Contest, renamed for 2008)  
Follow our general style guidelines. Submission for the poetry contest should consist of a chapbook-length manuscript of no more than 36 pages, an SASE, and $10. All entrants will receive a year's subscription to Permafrost. First place winner receives $100 and 30 copies of the chapbook.

 

Midnight Sun Fiction Contest
Follow our general style guidelines. Entries to Permafrost's fiction contest must be sent individually (one story per submission) and should include an SASE and the $10 fee. Submissions must be double-spaced and limited to 30 pages. All entrants will receive a year's subscription to Permafrost and are eligible for publication, but only the first-place winner gets the hundred bucks.

All contest entries must include a reading fee. Entries without the necessary reading fee will be considered general submissions. Make checks payable to Permafrost. All entries must be accompanied by an SASE for notification.
