Contests & Snippets

The Outsider Writers Collective has an open call for a fiction chapbook contest. They’re looking for around 14k – 20k words and it doesn’t look like there is a fee. What they want: Prose. Give us a story collection, or give us something altogether unique. We are open to plays on form and structure. Our editorial tastes lean toward the character-driven, quirky, perhaps even dark fiction.

Submit by December 31. More info here.

      Thanks for boost, Adam. We’ve got some great ones already. Good luck, all.

      very cool, caleb, and thanks for posting this adam. incidentally, caleb, my brother loved holocaust documentaries as well and often argued that the holocaust can’t/shouldn’t be dramatized in movies…only in documentaries like Shoah (I used to tease him that even the director doesn’t consider it a mere documentary). I say all this to mean that your SS collection looks very cool/interesting and I will buy it.

      Thanks, bb. For your own sanity, and the sanity of your family, I hope your brother didn’t meet an end similar to the brother in my story. Messy, for sure.
