Submission closing date – 28th March 2025
We are delighted to announce that once again, we will be running our Adult Short Story Competition. The chosen title for this year is ‘Making Waves’. We look forward to hearing from all budding authors, who can let their creative minds wander, resulting in wonderful, intriguing, and engaging short stories.
Entries must be your work, with a maximum of 1,500 words. It must include the title, but the interpretation is entirely up to you.
The competition is open to all those over 16 years of age. Entry costs £10 per story. There will be a first prize of £200 and a second prize of £100. All entries must be received by noon, on March 28th, 2025. Winners will be announced in time for a prize giving to be held at the Festival in May.
