Hi everyone. I'm the fiction editor for Fugue, and I'm just stopping in to let you guys know about our contest. We're a print literary journal, and the poetry prize is $1000. Oh, and I'm publicizing it because we're low on entries this year, which means you have a better than average chance of winning!
