Matty Dalrymple talks with Polly Campbell about REIGNITING YOUR CREATIVITY WITH WRITING CONTESTS, including how contests can boost your creativity, help you generate new story ideas, and strengthen your writing craft; how prompts and deadlines can push you out of your comfort zone in a positive way; why low-stakes experimentation leads to better work; and how connecting with other writers through contests can build community, motivation, and momentum in your writing life.
