Quickie Post

If you get turkeyed out this weekend and start itching to explore opportunities, be aware of these super-soon deadlines:

The great and gorgeous journal Water~Stone Review is accepting general submissions in creative nonfiction through December 1, 2009 (a postmark deadline), and you can go here to find out more about guidelines.

The Iota International Poetry Competition ends on November 30.  They're accepting submissions online, and the prize money's nothing to sneeze at.  Go here.  

For a $45K, year-long fellowship at the American Folk Life Center at the Library of Congress for "original field research into the culture and traditions of American workers," go here.  The deadline's November 30th, though, so hurry!

Here's an opportunity for you young social-justice junkies.  If you are, or know of, a college sophomore or junior who would benefit from a 15-day summer institute in New York City designed to help progressive activists become public policy makers, go here.  Students of color, immigrants, LGBT students, and working-class/low-income students are especially encouraged to apply.  (Know a student who'd be great?  Make a difference and send her or him to the site.)  The deadline for this one's not 'til February 14, 2010.

Hope you have a chance to kick back and feel some love over the holidays!
