You're welcome, Rosy! It's overwhelming to look up these things, so am trying to find a handful at a time, thoroughly check out, then share. I hope to do this every 2-3 months. If you hear of a good one, let me know :)
Thanks, Alison. I've just given Short Story a shot. I was completely unaware of (or had forgotten about) its existence. I really like the concept of a short story comp for and funded by Substackers.
Thanks for this Alison. I may try a nonfiction contest.
For fiction, the 3-Day Novel Contest used to be a great challenge, but I've not done it in five years or so. Don't know how well it's managed these days.
An excellent post, Alison. Thanks for the links and info.

That’s such a great thing to do. I certainly will.

Yes! He's doing good work with this. I'm so glad to hear you've sub'd work there!
This is the kind of info that can be frustratingly time-consuming to discover, assuming a writer even knows it exists. Thank you, Alison!

Do! the Event opp would be a fit!
I ran a series of pieces last year about the 3 Day: https://unschoolforwriters.substack.com/p/how-the-3-day-novel-contest-time (They're all in the Index for 2021.)
Ha! YOU know more about this than anyone! We should do a Q&A...
I would like to add - https://theghoststory.com/
They run several contests throughout the year and I was fortunate enough to win in 2017 for “ The Salish Sea Zombie”. It paid $1000 US
Thank you, Al! Much appreciated, yes. Loved that story! And that's serious prize money.
