Bigger Awards In Our Flash Fiction Contest

The Screw Turn Flash Fiction Competition, for very short stories (under 1,001 words) incorporating a supernatural theme or element, comes around only once a year. But the time is now—and for our 2021 Screw Turn, we will be accepting submissions until January 31.

One extra-good piece of news for people who like to write uncanny fiction on a miniature scale: Our cash awards are bigger this year, with $1,000 for the winner, and $200 for each of two honorable mentions.

Good luck!
