Caketrain Journal and Press is proud to announce our 2008 Caketrain Chapbook Competition,
the fourth installment of our annual creative writing contest. This
year, in an effort to further expand the horizons of our book series,
we have decided for the first time ever to look at chapbook manuscripts
in the fiction genre (never fear, poets -- your genre of choice
is slated to make its triumphant return in 2009). We're very excited
about this new development and the fantastic work that is sure to
emerge.
