Writing Competitions: Bellingham Review

We offer three $1,000-dollar first-place prizes for fiction, poetry and nonfiction.

Tobias Wolff Award for Fiction

49th Parallel Award for Poetry

Annie Dillard Award for Creative Nonfiction

Dedicated to forming a community of writers, the Bellingham Review also offers continual support to our authors through interviews, book reviews, social media promotion, and endless words of encouragement.

The cost to enter is $20. International entries are $30 to cover increased shipping costs.  

Deadline: March 15, 2023

An entry consists of one essay, one story, up to three pieces of flash, or up to three poems. 

Please limit prose to 4,000 words. For prose that is 1,500 words or fewer, submit up to three in one entry. (These flash prose pieces will be considered individually, unless they are connected.) 

Everyone who enters the competition will receive a copy of Issue 80. 

All submissions must be previously unpublished in North America. All manuscripts will be read blindly; readers and editors will not see a contestant’s name or cover letter. The author’s name must not appear anywhere on the manuscript (or in the filename).
