Hello again from AlienBooksPrague.  Periodically, we will provide info that both readers and writers might find beneficial.  Here is some info about a fiction contest, which we received via email:

Stymie Magazine (a journal I edit and such) is co-sponsoring a sport-themed fiction contest with ESPN The Magazine. The deadline is June 1st [2010] and all the details (legalese, rules, etc.) are available at the Stymie Magazine website.

If you could pass this along to any writers you know that might have an interest in such things, it would be appreciated!

Thanks,
