Last year, I had the honor of being a curator for the Something Or Other Publishing annual short story contest in the thriller and horror category, and this year it’s back! There’s plenty of prizes to win and loads of ways to enter, check out the official call for submission below:
Something Or Other Publishing provides an extraordinary chance for aspiring authors to show off their work, compete for cash awards, and get their writings published.
Our Annual Short Story Contest honors excellence in writing short stories by awarding talented writers with numerous guaranteed cash prizes (totaling over $5,000 this year) and a publishing contract to get their stories out to the world.
In addition to the winners, qualified writers can receive a contract offer to publish their work in one or more carefully curated anthologies and other projects under production with royalties generally above industry standards.
This year, they’re taking all categories, except poetry and screenplays, with word counts ranging from 2000 – 5000. So if you you’re sitting on a bunch of cool stories that you don’t know what to do with, or if you have an idea that has been building in the corner of your mind, now is the time to get it down on paper!
As always, I’d love it you had a look at my books. It truly warms an indie authors heart, and every single reader helps immensely! All my books can be found here.
