Dear Catholic Fiction enthusiast,

Tuscany Press would like to make everyone aware that the 2013 Tuscany Prize for Catholic Fiction will begin on January 1, 2013. We have made three major changes for 2013.

1.) The submission deadline is June 30, 2013.  We decided to make this change, so Tuscany Press can make available the Tuscany Prize Winners for Christmas 2013.

Submission Deadline: June 30, 2013

2.) New Category:  Catholic Young Adult Novel.  We are responding to the demand from parents for quality fiction for their children.

3.) Short Stories expanded: The Short Story prize has increased to 10 Short Stories, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th place and 5 Honorable Mentions.  In addition, the prize monies has increased.

Furthermore, we have added to the website Tuscany Prize Guidelines for Novel, Novella, Young Adult Novel and Short Stories.
