FICTION AND CREATIVE NON-FICTION; NO POETRY
Prizes: First Place – $1,000 • Second Place – $500 • Third Place – $200
Literary Anthology/Contest Guidelines
Planned publication date: October 2014 under Compass Flower Press imprint.
Working title/theme: Uncertain Promise.
Examples of uncertain promise: an unexpected outcome (joy, satisfaction, renewal, despair, emotional growth, etc.) from an otherwise routine or mundane circumstance; an unspoken commitment from a friend or lover falls through due to misunderstanding or unforeseen happening; a career or future crashes—or ascends—depending on the outcome of a single event. These are just ideas, use your imagination and please interpret broadly.
No previously published work, please.
Simultaneous submissions allowed—please inform on entry form and give immediate notification if accepted elsewhere. Fiction and creative nonfiction submissions are read and evaluated anonymously by two editorial boards; submission does not guarantee acceptance; acceptances that make the final cut are forwarded to independent judges for possible award of cash prizes. Each published contributor receives a free copy of the anthology.
Non-refundable entry fees ($US) for each category are $18 for electronic submission (paid on website) or $15 for mailed submission (paid by check or on website.) Compass Flower Press and AKA-Publishing are imprints of the independent and self-supporting publisher, AKA:yola, LLC.
