Song of the Day: Lucky by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat

Hello all! If you know me at all, then you know that Valentines Day is my favorite holiday! I think like it because I’m a hopeless romantic, and I believe that you should celebrate all types of love, not just romantic love. Until the 15th the song of the day will be a love song (my favorite kind).
I’m still coming down from the high of the 2011 AWP conference, but I’m so excited to be back home and I’m ready to get back to work (writing work that is!) Later this week, and next, I’ll be sharing some of the things I learned at the conference. For now, here are the opportunities for this week.
Contests:
The Bellingham Review seeks electronic submissions of flash fiction, prose poetry, and brief essays. There is no submission fee. I repeat, THERE IS NO SUBMISSION FEE!

I haven't written flash fiction since I was an undergraduate. I think it may be fun to give it another shot–though I doubt it would be good enough to enter into a contest! ๐
