I'm all about the contests and grants this year. I've already sent off a grant application and I'm on the lookout for book competitions I can enter with the body is as solid. One good source of calls for entries is, oddly enough (or maybe not so oddly) is the blog Fiber Arts Calls for Entry. Here are a couple of recent entries. But bookmark the blog or subscribe to it and check it frequently.
2009 Miniature Book Competition and Exhibition
Deadline: April 1, 2009
This miniature book contest has always looked cool to me, but I've never wanted to make gazillions of them just to enter it. If you've thought about doing this particular competition before before but have been turned off by the editions requirement, there's good news this year. See paragraph 2.
