News from Valhalla

Valhalla Press recently concluded two writing contests, a Flash Fiction/Flash Memoir Contest and a Legal Professionals Writing Contest. We would like to thank all of you who entered your work. The judges will be choosing the winners during February and announcing them by March 1. First prize in each contest is $500, an e-reader, and publication in the Spring 2013 issue of Ragnarok, the e-lit journal of Valhalla Press. Second prize winners will receive an e-reader and publication. An as yet undetermined number of entries will win honorable mention prizes which includes publication. The authors of all works chosen for publication receive $25. All authors who submitted works will receive constructive feedback on their stories. That's just how we roll in Valhalla.

Valhalla Press is also partnering with Submittable to accept future submissions for Ragnarok. Submittable is quickly becoming the industry standard for authors. We charge a $3 reading fee for these direct submissions and provide constructive feedback. We review submissions monthly and just reviewed January's entries--a few gems there, but more about that later in the month.

Those who wish to stay up-to-date on our writing contests have several options. You may sign up for our e-mail list on our contest page, follow us on Twitter (@valhallapress), or like us on Facebook.

Valhalla's minions are busy at work on other projects as well. As they come to fruition, they will be revealed.
