Submit up to two poems or one short fiction/essay piece via email (in the body AND attached in Word).

Simple: Make sure your submission is a winner,

"WHAT DO I DO WITH AN E-AWARD?"

You display it on your website or blog because it's so cool.

"OK.  WAIT.  WHAT BOOK DO I WIN?"

Renee Alberts' No Water or Marie Lecrivain's Antebellum Messiah.

"ANY OTHER INFO NEEDED?"

Your name, full postal address, and biographical stats.

"WILL YOU LOVE ME LONGTIME?"

Sorry.  I'm off the playing field.  While I understand that I would be the ultimate prize in your life, you'll only get an electronic award and a book - if you win.

"IS THIS PRIZE WORTH IT IF I CAN'T HAVE YOU, DAVEY?"

Not as sexyhot, but...yes!
