This is a fun! Our eight annual ULTRA FLASH FICTION CONTEST
Rules: This contest is open to any NCWN member in Chatham and Lee Counties, or to any member of Pittsboro Writers’ Morning Out.
Submission guidelines:
Any subject, any style not to exceed 300 words, including the title.
Only words of one syllable allowed. (Contractions pronounced as one syllable are OK. Exp: I’m, I’d, I’ve, can’t, won’t, don’t. Also, possessives pronounced as one syllable: Joe’s, Ann’s, Kate’s etc)
Yes, it can be done. You can write a story in 300 words, but you must make every word count. This requires some craftsmanship. Give it a try!
