Dear loyal Ducts followers:

We regret to inform you that the 2010 Ducts.org writing contest has been canceled. Those who participated will receive refunds of their entry fees by mail. In recognition of your hard work, we will also be submitting all entries to the appropriate Ducts section editors (Humor, Fiction, Memoir, and Essay) for publication consideration in a future issue of Ducts.org.

Thank you for your understanding,
The Staff of Ducts.org

This issue of Ducts is made possible with a regrant from the Council of Literary Magazines and Presses, supported by public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts, a state agency.
