Entries for the 2026 Best in Rural Writing Contest can be submitted by Sept. 1 for a chance to win up to $500 and be considered for publication in a future Best in Rural Writing anthology.
Submissions can be entered in the fiction and nonfiction categories, and can be up to 7,000 words.
Submission information is available through the The Milk House, a rural writing collective that features stories, essays and poems on rural subjects.
"Contest submissions may be previously published, and will also be read within 3-4 months of submitting with an eye towards publication on the site (themilkhouse.org), as well as the forthcoming Best in Rural Writing print anthologies," according to the website.
The first place winner will receive $500, and second place will receive $200.
If you have questions about entering the contest, please contact Ryan Dennis at RyanDennis@themilkhouse.org.
