More short stories wanting to be written

For those who may be interested in story opportunities, if you haven't seen these already:

Real Simple's Life Lessons Essay Contest: up to 1,500 words, prize of $3,000, deadline September 9. (I'm not actually doing this one, but I put it out for those who are interested.)

Boston Review's Annual Short Story Contest: entry fee $20, $1,500 prize, up to 4,000 words. (Also not doing this one. Yog's Law, right? Money flows to the author.)

Footprints, edited by [livejournal.com profile] ericreynolds and [livejournal.com profile] jaylake: 4,000 to 10,000 words, submission period August 15 to November 15.

The Phantom Queen Awakes, tales of Morrigan: 50 to 6,000 words, deadline December 1.

Federations, edited by John Joseph Adams: up to 5,000 words, submission period November 1 to January 1. (My stories never grab him for [i]F&SF[/i], but it can't hurt to sub, right?)

Thanks for the links. The Footprints one is an interesting concept, but talk about a story that if it doesn't get in would be unsubmittable. Everyone will know it was for that anthology.
