All submissions will be personally read, reviewed, and considered by BOA Publisher Peter Conners, founder and sole editor of BOA’s short fiction series. Manuscripts that do not win the contest are still eligible for publication by BOA. The winner receives book publication by BOA Editions, Ltd. in spring 2021 and $1,000 honorarium. Submission fee: $25
