Contests and Special Events

Novel and Short Works Contests

Periodically, MWA offers contests for writers
in such categories as short story, poetry, children's literature, and
playwriting. MWA also conducts workshops and participates in local literary
activities by hosting readings, sponsoring information booths, and submitting
works to literary competitions such as Baltimore's annual Artscape festival,
held each July.
