Writers Bureau Competition





The Writers Bureau is open for submissions to its 2019 Autumn Flash Fiction Competition with £1722 worth of prizes.

All entrants have to do is write a story, on any theme, in less than 500 words (not including the title).


Prizes are:

1st Place - £300
2nd Place - £200
3rd Place - £100


Plus, each winner can choose a Writers Bureau course worth over £374.

Winners will be published on the competition website.

The judge is Diana Nadin - Director of Studies at The Writers Bureau. She says, "Flash fiction may seem easy but it's not. Writers have to distil everything about their plot and characters into only a handful of words - so tight writing is essential. There's no room for waffle or digression. That's the challenge.  Last time we ran this competition we received some cracking entries so I'm looking forward to reading the next set of stories."

Entry fee: £5 per submission or three entries for £10!

Closing Date: 30th November 2019

Winners will be announced by 15th January 2020
