Everyone loves winning, but nobody enjoys losing. Writers are no exception. Contests in the writing profession offer opportunity in many forms, but so many writers fear entering. Whether they fear scans, rejection, or being judged, they hold back. On the other hand, others throw caution to the wind and enter every contest in sight, likewise winning nothing. Contests are a serious venture. They can catapult a career if entered thoughtfully with serious intent. Yes, intent. Contests aren't a whimsical endeavor. With planning, practice, and research, writers can enter contests and genuinely improve their odds of success.

"As an emerging writer, I found FundsforWriters a treasure trove of helpful information about how to embark on this crazy career called writing. As a published writer, I used FundsforWriters to determine where I might submit my work for further publication, and where I might get grants. And as a writer who's now teaching other writers, I direct participants in my online writing courses to the FundsforWriters website every single day. Hope Clark was with me every step of the way as I grew into the writing life; I can hardly imagine what I would do without her. FundsforWriters: the indispensable site for writers!"
