The Miracle Monocle Award for Young Black Writers| $200 Cash Prize
The Miracle Monocle Award for Young Black Writers is a new creation of an award series.
The winner of the prize will receive a $200 prize and publication in the journal.
Submissions in the following genres are welcome: poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, and experimental/hybrid literature.
Writers must be 25 years old or younger and identify as Black.
They accept only one submission per entry and also allows simultaneous submission but must be informed and withdrawn when accepted somewhere else.
. If you suspect we have overlooked or misplaced your submission, please contact us here: miraclemonocle@gmail.com.
We publish only previously unpublished work.
Entry Fee: 0$
Guidelines For submission:
Fiction– submit one piece of 1,000-10,000 words. They accommodate traditional realism and experiment alike.
Poetry– please submit no more than three pieces. They like unique voices that encourage us to reevaluate ourselves and the world around us--poetry that makes the familiar seem unfamiliar.
Creative nonfiction– submit one piece of 5,000 words or less. They're looking for personal narrative, topical investigations, and lyrical essays.
For the experimental and not-easily-defined, submit no more than 3 pieces.
They are also interested in flash, microfictions, nano fictions, and the like.
They’re also fans of hybrid and collaborative work. In other words, they like to play host to writers who straddle the lines between genres. Length is negotiable, though flash tends to turn into something else when it exceeds 1500 words.
Deadline: This project has established a quota. Submissions will close when it is reached.
