Our Supernatural Story Contest Is Closed
The summer 2019 Ghost Story Supernatural Fiction Award contest is now closed to submissions. To everyone who participated: Thank you! We’ll be in touch with you between now and Midsummer’s Eve, when we’ll publish the winner and two honorable mentions.
If you had intended to enter our competition and didn’t quite get your story in on time . . . don’t despair. Our fall contest—with the same $1,000 first prize, $250 for honorable mention, and both print and online publication—opens for submission on August 1.
Until then, Cheers—The Editor
