Pushcart-Prize-winner Steve Almond will judge Fringe magazine’s first flash fiction contest. First prize is $350 and publication in Fringe,
second prize $100, and third prize is $50. All entries will be
considered for publication. Submissions open on August 15 and will close at midnight on October 15, 2012.
The entry fee is $10, payable via the PayPal button below. Submissions must be fiction of 1,000 words or less. The first round of elimination will be blind, with Fringe editors David Duhr and Anna Barto making selections. Steve Almond will review finalists and select the winners.
Successful contenders will appeal to the Fringe aesthetic and our
judge’s narrative leanings.
