1. Mormon Mommy Writers (MMW) is calling for entries by July 31st. They can be fiction/non-fiction/poetry, and winners will be published in an anthology later in the year. For more information, check out this page.
2. If you are a Canadian writer, you should visit the Poetry Institute of Canada's contest page, which is also accepting short story submissions. Just click on this link.
3. Finally, a Canadian press called Polar Expressions Publishing is also accepting Canadian entries for their yearly anthology (of which I have twice been a published finalist, including once as an honorable mention).
Contests can be a great way to take a break from novel writing and hone our skills with quicker fare. Consider it the fast food of writing, except that in this case (if you enjoy it) it's actually healthy for you.
Best of luck!
