WinningWriters.com is moving forward with a new category for their next #NorthStreetBookPrize. I have always felt authors should seek out newish contests as well as highly respected ones. This will give those who write in this genre a chance at both with one entry! Keep up with changes, value-added gifts for contestants, and more at https://winningwriters.com/our-contests/north-street-book-prize before February 15, 2026.
Jendi Reiter, poet and editor of WinningWriters newsletter full of pre-vetted contests will always be pleased to hear from you. Subscribe at WinningWriters.com. And Word Works will be releasing her newest poetry book in January of 2026!
Oh! If you will be at AWP in Baltimore in March, WinningWriters will be there for the first time in over ten years. Be sure to look for them to meet both of them and perhaps some of their past winners, too!
PS: Be sure to check WW’s contest guidelines. It’s possible even older books might qualify! It’s the most inclusive contest I know of.
Carolyn Howard-Johnson is the multi award-winning author of fiction, creative nonfiction, and poetry. She is also a marketing consultant, editor, and author of the multi award-winning #HowToDoItFrugally Series (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BTXQL27T/ ) of books for writers including "The Frugal Book Promoter" (https://bit.ly/FrugalBookPromoIII), and "The Frugal Editor" both offered in their third editions by Modern History Press. Others in that series are "How to Get Great Book Reviews Frugally and Ethically," and two booklets, both in their second editions also from Modern History Press. The booklets, "Great Little Last Minute Editing Tips for Writers" (https://bit.ly/LastMinuteEditsII) and "Great First Impression Book Proposals" (https://bit.ly/BookProposalsII) are career boosters in mini doses and both make ideal thank you gifts for authors. The one on writing book proposals is also available as an Audio Book. "The Frugal Editor "(https://tinyurl.com/TheFrugalEditor), was recently released in its third edition. It is the winningest book in this series for writers.
Carolyn also has three frugal books for retailers including one she encourages authors to read because it helps them understand what is needed to convince retailers to host their workshops, presentations, and signings. It is "A Retailer’s Guide to Frugal In-Store Promotions: How To Increase Profits and Spit in the Eyes of Economic Downturns with Thrifty Events and Sales Techniques" (https://bit.ly/RetailersGuide). In addition to this blog, Carolyn helps writers extend the exposure of their favorite reviews at https://TheNewBookReview.blogspot.com. She also blogs all things editing--grammar, formatting and more at "The Frugal, Smart, and Tuned-In Editor" (https://TheFrugalEditor.blogspot.com).
