If you have published a novel or book length collection of fiction with a reputable book publisher or at least three short stories or novellas in magazines or journals with a national distribution you will be eligible for entry to the Drue Heinz Literature prize. Digital only and self-publication do not count towards this requirement. The prize for the winner will include publication, promotion support for their book and a $15,000 cash prize.
The award is open to international authors writing in English and you may submit unpublished short story manuscripts of 150-300 pages or two or more novellas of a maximum 130 pages which are part of a larger collection. Although stories and novellas may have been published in magazines, journals or anthologies they should not have been published as a whole.
