Next year’s fiction contest will be announced in early 2011. With no
official connection to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the
Irreantum fiction contest is supported by the Utah Arts Council, with
funding from the State of Utah and the National Endowment for the Arts,
which believes that a great nation deserves great art.

Congratulations to all the winners!

  1. Thanks for posting this, Kent. I have read 17 Facts and it’s very good — and in this same vein of parabolic/short prose poem discourse that several us have been working lately.
