Here are the winners of the Awards XII competition which closed in July.
Winning entries will appear along with winners of our NMW Awards XIII (deadline Jan. 31; see guidelines
) in a special double issue, which those entering will receive in the spring. This will be our
largest issue yet, with fiction, poetry, writing advice and humor from many voices. We've spent much of the last
year reassessing our publishing strategy and planning for the future, which will include more double issues.
We regret any delays this may have caused.
Toby Heaton of Asheville, NC and Sari Rose of Middletown, CT tied to win the $1,000 Fiction Award. Mr. Heaton won for "Southern Revival" and Ms. Rose won for "The Daughter of Retail".
Eduardo C. Corral of Casa Grande, AZ won the $1,000 Poetry Award for his poem "For A Boy In A Bus Depot".
Trent Moorman of Seattle, WA won the $1,000 Nonfiction Award for "Tilos".
