FYI, Another Writing Contest

Writing About Writing

 

 
14th Annual Short Story Challenge
“There are 4 rounds of competition this year. In the 1st Round (January 17-25, 2020), writers are placed randomly in heats and are assigned a genre, subject, and character assignment. Writers have 8 days to write an original story no longer than 2,500 words.” And so on. NYC Midnight Short Story Challenge

Undecided about entering. I remain dubious about paying for contests, but I may be fighting a losing battle. Perhaps if I think of it as tuition for an learning exercise rather than as paying a potential market.

I suspect I heard about this one because I entered the two Gotham Workshop contests [Can You Write Short?]. I am now on their radar.

Early entry deadline, with discount – December 12, 2019.
Final entry deadline – January 16, 2020.

What think you, should I? Would you join me?

Thank you for reading,
