Take the L Train

The L Magazine, a sassy New York bi-weekly, has announced their second annual Literary Upstart contest. 1,500 words, due April 12; if you just can’t decide which of your stories to submit, don’t sweat it — you can send in two. The finalists — which last year included Pittsburgh MFA student Sarah Harris, at left — read together in a watering hole somewhere in New York City during the summer to face off for a cash prize and adulation of the many.
