New American Fiction Prize

The New American Fiction Prize is an annual prize awarded by New American Press. The award was established in 2010 to give voice to emerging writers of innovative fiction.

The New American Fiction Prize is awarded annually to one winner for a book-length work of fiction. Manuscripts may be novels, novellas, collections of stories and/or novellas, novels in verse, linked collections, or full-length collections of flash fiction. Authors of winning manuscripts receive a cash award of US$1000 and a box of contributor copies, and their collections are subsequently published under a standard contract.
