Very Short Story Contest at Glimmer Train
Close to my heart, as I love short short fiction, and it's a reputable outlet and a reasonable reading fee. Hey, in the time it takes to post to your blog, you could have a short short story to send in. Here's the info, or go to their site:
Competition: Glimmer Train's Summer Very Short Fiction Award.
Eligibility: Open to all themes, all subjects, all writers, published and
unpublished. Your original, unpublished story must not exceed 2,000 words.
First-place winner receives $1,200, publication in Glimmer Train Stories,
and 20 copies of the issue in which it is published. Second- and
third-place winners receive $500/$300, respectively, and acknowledgement
in that issue.
To submit your story, go to our site, Glimmer Train Press Online Submissions,
log in, and click on VERY SHORT STORY AWARD. Reading fee (payable by visa
or mc) is $10 per story.
