Extra Extra

This is a new addition. The "extra extra" entries are for whoever reads this, who's interested in writing, and wants to see some good contests to submit stuff to. There's a lot of different places to look for for applying, and I'm only listing stuff that's in my agenda--so, if you have specific genres you write in, or specific themes, you should look up some additional stuff for yourself. If you're interested, though, I tend to go towards (in no particular order) (1) literary, (2) hispanic/American literature, (3) experimental/ magical realism, and (4) translation. The themes that carry through my works tend to be (in no particular order) (1) family, (2) socially incorrect relationships, (3) academic/intellectual (like randomly mentioning famous authors, or something), (4) sex is a big one, (5) beautiful women, (6) music, and (7) quirky characters and events. So, if any of your stuff matches those, I highly suggest you apply to the contests I post up here.

So, the "extra extra" section will look something like this:
