Fosseway Writets Flash Fiction Competition 2020

Applications call for Fosseway Writers Flash Fiction Competition 2020. A couple of big changes for 2020 are that the prize money has gone up and you can now enter by Word/PDF attachments via email. Please do not send in entries without reading the rules carefully as Fosseway will not accept any that do not conform to the rules.

Prizes

• First Prize: £50
• Second Prize: £30
• Third Prize: £20,

Content

• Maximum length per entry: 300 words (excluding title)
• Entries to be typed in a black standard font, 12 pt. If sending hard copy rather than via email they must be printed single-sided on A4 paper.
• All writing must be the original work of the competitor and previously unpublished.
