Short Story Award for New Writers

I've been hard at work on a Gus Corral mystery, so today's post for La Bloga is a little late and a bit short.  However, the news is good -- here's all you need to know to enter a short story contest that has a $3000 first prize (!!!)  plus publication.  But you gotta get with it -- deadline is August 30th.  The judge is the one and only Kali Fajardo-Anstine, who knows her way around a short story, so you're gonna have to bring it.  Good luck.  Go to this link for more info.
