2019 Pulitzer Prize Contest Open to Letters, Drama and Music Entries

The Letters, Drama and Music entry site has opened for the 2019 cycle.

As you prepare to submit your entry, we would also like to apprise you of two changes in the entry process:

  • We have increased the entry fee from $50 to $75. The increase applies to all Prize categories.
  • The Board has added two jurors to the Fiction and General Nonfiction categories. Entrants who intend to submit books in either category must send six copies to the Pulitzer organization. History, Biography and Poetry entrants will continue to submit four copies.

Feel free to consult the How to Enter page or the book submission FAQ if you have any questions. 

Our staff may be reached at [email protected] or (212) 854-3841 if you require additional assistance.
