"Atlanta magazine, the city’s only general-interest magazine and one of the oldest citymags in the country, is looking for writers to submit personal essays for the 'On My Mind' department. Writers may submit on any topic as long as it relates to the city/metropolis of Atlanta. (For a model, see Newsweek's regular 'My Turn' essay.) Repeat: The content absolutely must relate to the city of Atlanta. To be clear: This should not just be about you but also, somehow, about the CITY. The city cannot simply be a backdrop or mentioned as a drive-by but rather must be a factor, a presence in the piece -- better yet, its raison d'etre. It should tell us, the readers, something about this place where we live -- we should find something familiar, soothing, upsetting, true." Pays: "flat fee." Find out more here.

The Art Bar Poetry Series (Toronto) is running a poetry contest (no entry fee). Invites one entry per person, of one poem up to 40 lines long. The poem "must contain the words 'art' and 'bar' in any order." Prizes: $250 (1st); $150 (2nd); $100 (3rd). I'm assuming these prizes will be awarded in Canadian funds. See the announcement for more information and submission instructions. Deadline: June 15, 2007. (via placesforwriters.com)
