Short Stories - Anything between 400 - 3000 words.
Flash Fiction - Anything up to 400 words.

Competitions are monthly. The closing date is the 26th of each month. Any submissions received after that date will automatically be entered in the following month.

Winners will be announced on the first of every month. Their stories will be published on our site for two months as of that date. Everyone who enters will receive an email detailing the winning stories.

You can enter as many stories as you like and they can be about absolutely anything... and swearing IS allowed!

Stories are £5 per entry and can be paid for on our Entry Page. Once you have paid through Paypal, you can click our submissions page where you submit your story in to the body of an email, or you can attach it as a Word document. Please do not attach PDF's.

If your story is successful you will receive a payment via Paypal. The amount you receive is based on a percentage of the number of entries that month. So the more people that enter, the bigger the prize money will be!
