85. Linda Holeman Profile, selected publications, and awards. http://www.writersunion.ca/h/holeman.htm

Linda Holeman (Photo: 1998, Janzen Photography) One of Linda's fictional characters said, "To successfully survive life on the prairies you've got to have no imagination at all, or one so rich that it takes you away." Linda's imagination, the latter, saved her soul while growing up in Winnipeg, Manitoba. She attained a B.A. from the University of Winnipeg, ran away to see the rest of the world, then came back and received a M.Ed. in Educational Psychology from the University of Manitoba. She taught for a decade. Now she writes full-time for both young adults and adults. She still lives in Winnipeg, still counts on her imagination to take her away, but is a habitual traveller and relies more heavily on airplanes. Selected Publications: Devil's Darning Needle .

92. Warnings And Cautions For Writers--Writing Contests And Vanity Anthologies The vanity anthology company places ads in various publications (including writers magazines) announcing a poetry contest, with cash prizes for the finalists http://www.sfwa.org/Beware/contests.html

CONTESTS AND VANITY ANTHOLOGIES Links checked/Page updated: 4/18/04 On this page: Writing Contests Links Vanity Anthologies Links Writing Contests There are hundreds of literary contests, online and off. Most are real; some are even prestigious. But many are fake. And of the legitimate ones, few are important enough to provide a meaningful addition to your writing resume. Contest Fakes Fake contests come in many different guises, but they all have a common goalto take your money. Some are outright scams. For instance, one fee-charging literary agency advertises a contest where the prize is agency representation. Representation is indeed offered (to everyone who enters), but the catch is that it comes with a hefty editing fee attached. Another agency uses a false name to run its contestentrants are told that even though they didn't win their work is "exceptional", and referred to the agency, which charges an up-front fee. Other contests are run by questionable publishers. Often the prize is a book contract, and the winners don't find out until afterward that they must pay a fee for publication, or agree to pre-purchase large numbers of books, or pay the publisher for a publicity campaign (a good reason never to enter a contest that doesn't allow you to refuse a contract if it's offered). Or the publisher may give the list of entrants to a vanity publishing service or a fee-charging literary agency, which then sends out solicitations and pays the first publisher a kickback if any of the entrants bite.
