We’re pleased to announce that our third short story competition is open for entries. Entries to our previous competition grew significantly compared to our inaugural one. And we’re expecting a lot of interest in the new one not least because of its theme and a certain event that it coincides with!

The theme of this competition is “The Wedding Gift”. It can be interpreted any way you wish, but we do recommend you take heed of our judges’ advice following our previous competition:

As a writer, it’s worth remembering that your first idea for a story may often be someone else’s too, so it might be a good idea to dig again more deeply for a different or more unusual idea?

Here are the competition’s rules and terms & conditions. They should all be self-explanatory.

Please be aware that your entry must be received by midnight on Thursday 31st May 2018.
