Open to residents of Canada and the United States only. Poetry / Short Fiction competition:

The POP Montreal International Music Festival and Matrix Magazine have joined forces to rock your literary world with Canada's most innovative and exciting literary competition. They're looking for writing that really pops. So if you can bring the noise with poetry and/or short fiction, it’s time to smash some bottles and trash some hotels (but not really though). If you have what it takes, you will get your work published in Matrix, and get free travel to POP Montreal for a night in your honour.

The Santa Fe Writers Project 

Their mission statement is to discover one new writer per year. If you've never been published, or if you're self published, or published by a small press who have used less than $15,000. to promote your work, you are eligible for this international project. They are looking for writers of novellas, or short stories and want to publish one author per year, starting spring of 2014. Andrew Gifford is the publisher.   They tells us that this project is separate and unrelated to the contest which they run and which has an entry fee of $30.
