Roller Derby literary contest

The esteemed Barrelhouse magazine is looking for your best roller derby fiction. Yes, you heard that right. Roller derby. It's a contest with prizes and everything too. Check it out!

The one we like best (aka, "The Winner") will recieve original artwork from Cory Oberndorfer, who creates (among other things) roller derby related art. Cory's piece will take it's inspiration from your work. This essentially means that you will become immortalized in two formats: your roller derby writing will appear in the pages of Barrelhouse, and will also be celebrated in or serve as inspiration for Cory's work. Which will also be the cover of the next issue of Barrelhouse. So essentially we're offering to make you a stone cold Mona Lisa style roller derby literary god or goddess whose roller derby writing will live on for all eternity. Other stuff that we like will appear in the Very Special Roller Derby Section, thus making it's authors a form of lower deities.

Go to Barrelhouse for more info about how to enter. Deadline for entries is March 17.

P.S. Not only will your work appear in this highly regarded literary magazine, but you will also be feted as the guest of honor at an all roller derby event (hosted by The Pink Line Project) in June that will feature the best of everything roller derby has to offer.
