The Odyssey Bookshop was established in 1963, and serves both the general local community and the Mount Holyoke College community. With a goal of bringing readers and writers together, the bookstore’s literary event schedule includes more than one hundred events a year for adults and children—including author signings, book launch parties, book groups, workshops, and readings—which are attended by thousands of people annually.
Find details about every creative writing competition—including poetry contests, short story competitions, essay contests, awards for novels, grants for translators, and more—that we’ve published in the Grants & Awards section of Poets & Writers Magazine during the past year. We carefully review the practices and policies of each contest before including it in the Writing Contests database, the most trusted resource for legitimate writing contests available anywhere.
