Dates: 30 September - 1 October 2011
Stock up on coffee and dust off your lucky mug. Pat the Dog Playwright Centre is thrilled to announce we are hosting our third annual 24-hour playwriting contest. This means 30 adrenaline-pumped writers from across Ontario will be hitting the keyboards from 4:00 PM on Friday, September 30, 2011 to 4:00 PM Saturday, October 1, 2010.
All contestants write off-site, so you can write at home, in a coffee shop, on a bus… the location is up to you. There’s no entry fee and no restriction on final script length. All you have to do is write an original play using three secret words — in 24 hours. How easy it that?
Not very. But the rewards could be great. Our winning playwrights are everywhere!
Rules & Regulations:
The contest is open to anyone living in Ontario, except contest Jurors. Space is limited to the first 30 entrants, accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. To enter, just fill out our online form here.
Entrants can work from a page of prepared notes, but all plays are to be original works.
The script must include, in some form, the three secret words we select. These words will be emailed to the participants at 4:00 PM on Friday, September 30, 2011.
Participants must email their play to the designated email address no later than 4:00 PM on Saturday, October 1, 2011.
Scripts must be in electronic format (acceptable extensions include .doc, .docx, rtf, .pdf, or .txt), written in 12 point Arial, Courier or Times Roman, double-spaced between speaking parts, and formatted for 8 1/2” X 11” paper.
The title page should contain the title of the play, your name, contact number and email. The play itself must NOT contain your name, but have a header with the play title and page numbers.
Prizes & Notification:
Winners will be announced on our website on Monday, October 4 at 4:00 PM. Prizes will be awarded as follows:
First place will receive $500, a public staged reading of the winning script and full bragging rights. We’ll also feature you on our website in a Q&A.
Second place: a reading.
Third place: a reading.

Free contest, Esquire/ Aspen Writers' Foundation Short Fiction Contest, top prize: $8,000 (value) - USA/ CAN/ Puerto Rico
Deadline: 7 October 2011
Win a trip to New York to study with Colum McCann, and a scholarship to the Aspen Summer Words Fiction Workshop. If you can beat Colum McCann (in 78 words).
An Introduction (in 78 words)
The greatest short short of all time is, of course, Hemingway's: "For sale. Baby shoes. Never worn."
There is a whole life and death written there. The art of the short short is to compress yet not lose narrative power.
It is closer to poetry than it is to fiction. Everything matters. Just a simple paragraph break can have enormous narrative consequences. This is not a Twitter game. This is the search for a white star of language.
The Rules (in 78 words)
Entries must be 78 words, in honor of Esquire's 78th birthday. We're calling these short shorts Aspens.
Ten winners will be flown to New York for a fiction workshop, taught by Colum McCann, and literary party. Grand Prize winner receives a full scholarship for the advanced fiction workshop at Aspen Summer Words (June 17 to 22, 2012). All entries due by October 7, 2011.

By participating in the Contest, entrant certifies that his/her entry is original, has not been previously published or won any award, and does not contain any material that would violate or infringe upon the rights of any third party, including copyrights, trademarks or rights or privacy or publicity.

Freelance writing, Baby & Toddler Magazine, pays $700-$2,000 for features (Canada)
Today's Parent Baby & Toddler is a consumer magazine for parents with children up to the age of three. It is distributed as a "special edition" of Today's Parent through doctors' offices and to new subscribers to Today's Parent magazine who have babies. Currently there are two issues of Today's Parent Baby & Toddler a year.
The tone of the magazine is positive and supportive, yet realistic. While for most articles it will be important to consult health or child–care professionals, we also want to include the experience and reflections of parents. We do not lecture or dictate to our readers; rather, we pass on to them the suggestions and shared experience we have gathered. We recognize that apart from basic matters of health and safety (e.g. using a car seat), there are a variety of positive ways to handle most parenting situations.
Baby & Toddler does, however, have a parenting philosophy. We promote a gentle, nurturing parenting style that respects each child's unique personality, and also understands the normal developmental needs and limitations shared by all babies and toddlers as they grow. We encourage parents to interpret their babies' behaviour in this context (my toddler is having a tantrum because she's frustrated and overwhelmed, not because she's "naughty"), and to stay on their child's side.
We are advocates of breastfeeding as the best feeding choice for babies. At the same time, we respect the decision to bottle–feed, understanding that it may be the best choice for individual families.
We also recognize that the first three years of parenting can be the most demanding, and the most hands–on, and so we also address the needs of parents. Stories may range from the very practical (starting a playgroup) to the more introspective (coming to terms with your new identity as a parent).
Queries
Please do not telephone, e–mail or fax queries. Send a detailed query letter rather than completed manuscripts and, if it's your first contact with us, include samples of previously published work.
Send your query to:
The Editor, Today's Parent Baby & Toddler,
One Mount Pleasant Road, 8th Floor,
Toronto, Ontario M4Y 2Y5
When submitting a query, please indicate the word length you consider appropriate for the story.
Responses will be mailed within six weeks, providing a stamped, self–addressed envelope is enclosed. Today's Parent Baby & Toddler accepts no responsibility for unsolicited material.
Please note that we do not publish poetry or fiction. Because we promote ourselves as a Canadian magazine, we favour Canadian writers.
Editorial Lineup
Baby Bulletin (every issue): provides news and tips on health, safety and development, plus crafts, activities and books. This department is written by a regular contributor.
Health (every issue): deals with common health issues affecting children –– everything from how to take a temperature to common baby ailments to ear infections. The tone should be helpful, not alarmist.
Playtime (every issue): provides ideas for play, activities, crafts, outings and adventures that parents can share with their children.
Baby Steps (every issue): deals with common developmental issues. Divided into four parts (0–6 months; 6–12 months; 12–24 months; 24–36 months). This department is written by a regular contributor.
Trade Secrets (every issue): A how–to on a particular aspect of baby care. Written by staff.
Features
Today's Parent Baby & Toddler runs features of varying lengths in each issue, with a balance between the practical and the philosophical, covering child care and development, breastfeeding, the parenting experience, consumer information, and resources for families. All articles should be grounded in the reality of Canadian family life. Without claiming to know all the answers, we try to leave the reader with a sense of positive direction.
Feature topics range widely and can include such diverse stories as how fathers can support breastfeeding, night waking, making mealtimes happy for toddlers, choosing daycare, sex after childbirth, travelling with your baby, choosing a baby carrier and turning down parenting stress.
Word length and fees vary depending on the complexity of the story –– usually 1,000 to 2,500 words, $700 to $2,000.
Style
We are looking for good magazine writing. Stay away from essay format and didactic prose. Use quotations. Unless you have been assigned to write a personal reflection article, restrict any first–person narratives to the occasional use of your own experience as an example or for a lead. The writing style should be lively and accessible. A light–hearted approach, where appropriate, is welcomed.
Wherever possible, sources, statistics and anecdotal material should be Canadian. Since we are a national magazine it is important to avoid a local bias. When selecting parents to interview, please keep in mind that Canadian families have many configurations and many cultural backgrounds; we would like this diversity to be reflected in the pages of the magazine.
Sidebars with supplementary information or practical tips are encouraged. We also like to include a list of resources for parents at the end of each article, and we encourage writers to recommend relevant books or organizations.
We use the Canadian Oxford Dictionary for spelling. Numbers one to ten are spelled out and numerals are used for 11 and up.
We would like the magazine to be read by mothers and fathers. Please don't assume an exclusively female audience. Also watch out for sexist language. Good non–sexist writing requires careful sentence construction (avoid using he/she or mixing singular and plural, as in "when a child cries, you should comfort them."). When discussing indivudal children, roughly balance girls and boys.
Notes
If you are assigned an article, your handling editor will contact you by phone to discuss the direction of your assignment and will send you a contract letter specifying deadline and fee. We will reimburse telephone and some other expenses. Expenses other than long distance charges should be approved by the handling editor in advance. Writers must send an invoice with their manuscript; fees will be paid 30 days after acceptance.
Include a list of your sources, with telephone numbers, with your MS. Be sure to include the full address of any source who has asked to receive a copy of your article and indicate that you wish copies sent. Please be diligent and double–check names and titles of sources.

Wikepedia description: "Kustom Kulture" is an American neologism used to describe the artworks, vehicles, hairstyles, and fashions of those who drove and built custom cars and motorcycles in the United States of America from the 1950s through today.
In the early days of hot rodding, many fashions and styles developed. Over time, each of these distinct styles of customizing have blended and reshaped our everyday life. Artists such as Von Dutch (Kenny Howard), custom car builders such as Ed "Big Daddy" Roth and Dean Jeffries, hot rod and lowrider customizers such as the Barris Brothers (Sam and George Barris), along with numerous tattoo artists, automobile painters, and movies and television shows such as American Graffiti, Happy Days, The Munsters (The Munster Koach, Drag-u-la) and The Monkees (The Monkeemobile) have all helped to form what is known as Kustom Kulture. Kustom Kulture is usually identified with the greasers of the 1950s, the drag racers of the 1960s, and the lowriders of the 1970s. Other subcultures that have had an influence on Kustom Kulture are the Skinheads, mods and rockers of the 1960s, the punk rockers of the 1970s, the metal and rockabilly music, along with the scooterboys of the 1980s, and psychobilly of the 1990s. Each separate culture has added their own customizations to the cars, their own fashions, influenced the music, and added their own ideas of what is cool, of what is acceptable, and what is not. Everything from wild pinstriped paintjobs, to choptop Mercurys, to custom Harley-Davidson and Triumph Motorcycles, to metalflake and black primer paintjobs, along with music, cartoons, and monster movies have had an impact on what defines anyone and anything who is part of this automobile subculture.
Writers are needed all over Vancouver Island to write articles on automotive racing, motorcycles, cars, rat rods, bands, tattoo artists and other things in the field of kustom kulture. Articles are to be around 500 words.
Please phone Mona-Lisa at 250-802-5652 to discuss the position in more details. No resume is necessary. If you really want the position, write a short article you feel is applicable and email it to viperformance@shaw.ca
Location: Vancouver Island, BC
Compensation: $50/article
Telecommuting is ok.

Freelance writing, W3Matter.com, pays $25 per lesson unit for children (USA/ Can/ UK)
We're looking for a writer to create some lesson units for children between the ages of 4-8. We pick a subject, and you research and write it so a child can understand (example "rainfall"). It should be fun, interesting and easy to grasp by little minds. If you can create a couple of illustrations or know someone who can, thats a definite plus, but is not required. It should take about 10-20 minutes for a parent (or child) to read the material and understand the topic.
Think a wikipedia page, but distilled in such a way that a kid can understand it. For example, on the subject of "rainfall", you'd:
* Say what it is
* Explain how the water got up there
* Create a fun exercise for the kid and their parent to do (for example, walk outside and look for clouds to see which one is likely to make rain first)
* Include one or more photographs to illustrate your point
* Make it all funny, interesting and thorough!
We'll pay you $25 per piece produced.
You will have:
* Impeccable English skills
* Some education experience or experience working with small children (not necessary, but will be a bonus)
* A sense of humor and discovery
* A love of learning and children
Pick a topic, and send a sample of what we are looking for, along with a cover letter explaining some of your qualifications to kids@w3matter.com
This assignment is for US, Canadian, or United Kingdom applications only.
