Default Helen Schaible sonnet contest

I'm passing along the following announcement from Allison Joseph's CRWROPPS list about this year's Helen Schaible sonnet contest. I feel a bit silly re-posting something that has this many exclamation marks, but I'm just the messenger, and it's a contest where Sphereans have won and placed in the past.
